Dual channel not registering

Hey,

 

I have this laptop HP 455 G3 as it only came with one stick of 8GB ram I just brought this ram to upgrade it. 

 

CPUz is telling me that it is still running in single channel. As far as I can tell they should work in dual channel. Is there something I'm missing?  :unsure:

 

Thanks 

Your motherboard(well, laptop) doesn't support dual channel, its listed in the specs here(sorry for the Italian link, didn't feel like changing it, but Google translate will work) : http://support.hp.com/it-it/document/c04845367
