hi. this is my first post, and the forum says why shouldnt I make my first post today to say "hi" to the community.. so.. Hi everybody

OK now to get to the point :
I've got an older pc ( amd athlon 1200 ) and recently I have started rebuilding my PC ( don't have enough cash to buy a new one )
so first I bought a new motherboard ( nForce 2 ) and some RAM ( 256 DDR @ 400 ) and a new graphichs card ( not so new anymore lol

GeForce FX 5200 )
anyway.
When I start up my pc bios shows me that my RAM is working @ 200 Mhz instead of 400. Now I've tried to fix this through Bios, but in the chipset menu this option is set to 200 and its not editable. No matter what I do I can't edit this. My bios is Phoenix - AwardBios v6.00PG
Hope someone can help =)
