I just ran CPUZ and my PC2-5300 1GB DDR2-667 Memory is showing that it is running at only 333 mhz max, and my CPU's FSB is rated at 800 but is running at 200mhz...

My motherboard allows 1066 / 800 / 533 MHz FSB speeds... so how do I get my memory and CPU to run at the speed that they are rated at?

DDR2 667 runs at 333MHz (333.33MHz x 2 = 667MHz rated speed).

Your FSB is 200MHz (200MHz x 4 = 800MHz rated bus speed).
 
The memory is DDR- Dual Data Rate.

As far as your FSB, look at it like having 4 200MHZ lanes instead of one 800mhz lane. Its quad pumped. Thats how it works in simple terms, basically its more technical than that.
