    According to you book. Use either slots 1 and 2. Or slots 3 and 4.
    I would try 1 and 2 first and then check if you are dual channel.
    You can use CPU-Z to check your ram or Speccy.

    I have to go to sleep now as it's getting pretty late, i will fix the sticks tomorrow when i come back from work and stresstest the computer.

    Thank you so far for your support, i will report back tomorrow!

    EDIT: After almost crushing my motherboard trying to put in the ram, it seems that i've finally managed to get the dual channel setting up.



    Computer hasn't crashed once today, but i also haven't really been able to test it properly. So far so good, i will report back in a few days, or the next time the computer crashes, hopefully it will be good now though.

    Thanks for the help so far!

    It's been 3 days so i thought i'd give an update. After air blasting my case and switching RAM to dual channel, the PC has not had any sort of freeze or crash. I still feel a bit skeptical as to whether the the problem is fixed or not, but i am going to mark this as solved. If any freezes occur in the future i will make a new thread again.

    Thanks for all the help!
