Nah just the two slots, I've got 2x512MB TwinMOS PC3200 Ram cards Its always had the problem where it wouldn't work at 200Mhz since day 1, but I couldn't be arsed to try and take it back to overclockers... More trouble than its worth.....
I did try reseating the cards, even tried a old S3 PCI Graphic Card!
Had no effect.. strangley enough, I tried my RAM in my works PC, just to check it still worked, which it did, so I bought my works PC RAM across to try that and that worked :| so I put the Dual RAM back in, and that decided to work for no reason lol! However I did find out that you have to put the RAM into the DIMM2+4 slots, not DIMM1+3 I had it in originally... If the useless manual had maybe told me that, would have saved alot of trouble.....
@Iain, just put
+set thereisacow 1337 +set developer 1 +set sv_cheats 1 +set monkeytoy 0
in your shortcut.. press the ¬ key ingame and type - cg_drawFPS 1
That'll display your FPS
Also a bit of advice here, in COD2, ALWAYS set "Optimise for SLi Mode" even if you only have a single card, it usually gives you a 5%-20% boost in FPS
