Here's some specs on my PC's processor, and board...

I already have 1gig of DDR Ram, which should be plenty in that department.

Is there anything I can do to upgrade my bus clock speed? Would I have to upgrade the BIOS to increase bus speed? My PC is suppossed to have 200 FSB, so why is it running at 100?

Shouldn't my FSB be running at 200?

100MHz double-pumped is 200MHz FSB.

I don't understand.

Is my system supposed to be "double pumping"?
If so, how would I know if it is or not?

No, it is supposed to be quad-pumping in fact. AMD uses double-pumping. That 2.0GHz CPU has an FSB of 400MHz, if you see 100MHz things are fine.

Intel and FSB :
100MHz = FSB400
133MHz = FSB533
200MHz = FSB800

AMD and FSB :
100MHz = FSB200
133MHz = FSB266
166MHz = FSB333
200MHz = FSB400
