the problem is you set your fsb back to 200mhz, it was probably at 333mhz or 400mhz which should add the extra 400 mhz your missing...

Clear CMOS, might think its a 3200+ still.

No as with all of those Athlon 64s the fsb should be at 200mhz. The 4000+ runs at 2.4ghz, which is 12x200. I'm not sure how you could be getting 2.0ghz unless you've got the multiplier knocked down to 10. Before we go on trying to fix this, load up your bios and see what the current multiplier is Ckirsh.

I have a feeling its set to 10, since your previous processor, the 3200+, was running at 2.0ghz (10x200).
