My questions are...
1. Will the processor run in 64 bit automatically or do you have to turn it on somewhere so it will run in 64 bit?
You'll need a 64 bit operating system

2. How do i tell if my ram is running in dual channel?
Just put the 2 identical sticks of ram in 2 slots of the same color and it should run in dual channel.

3. I have DDR2 800 ram but it says its only running at like 399mhz, why is this?
the ram runs at 400mhz, and since it's DDR, double it and you get 800mhz

4. I have a 320GB sata hard drive and it says its total size is 298GB, i know its not supposed to be the full amount, but should it only be 298GB?
That happens to all harddrive, probably the partition or something, but yeah, it's normal. Also, some of the space could be used for system restore and stuff like that.
