My computer has an Asus A7N8X-X motherboard with the Nvidia nforce2 400 chipset.I am using two sticks of 256Mb pc3200 at 333Mhz. I believe this motherboard supports dual channel memory, how do I enable this.

to enable dual channel on the a7n8x you put two memory sticks in the two blue slots. Your a7n8x-x does not have those slots, because it is single channel.

However, your board will perform almost the same as the dual channel board.
