A quarter of a Gig is very small.

You are stretching that machine beyond it's limits....that's why it's slow.

There many only be 2 channels, but the maximum each can take, on that particular motherboard is 512 MB, in each slot, making 1 GB in total.

Like i said before, and agreeing with what Patio says, you are  streching your machine. Your could do with more RAM.
