More RAMbell questions

You may remember I upgraded my laptop's ram to 2 x 512mb sticks to run Traktor more smoothly. After a few months and some heavy tweaking to optimise performance, I'm still having problems. Some google work told me that my motherboard, while having 2 ram slots, does not support parallel mode (if that's the right term for running 2 sticks side by side). Firstly, wtf is the point in having 2 ram slots of they don't run in parallel? Secondly, I've just taken delivery of a 1gb stick which I shall be installing tonight. Does the symetrical rule still apply if they don't run in parallel or should I take out both ram sticks and just run the single. TBH the only reason I ask if it will be ok is that the second ram slot is fiddly to get to so would rather open the back up, eject one stick and replace it than have to undo a few more screws and release the keyboard.

Cheers comptuery know-how people
