Ram not running at right speed

I downloaded the everest test program and this is what I got for my ram

Field Value
DIMM1 256 MB PC3200 DDR SDRAM (3.0-3-3-8 @ 200 MHz) (2.5-3-3-7 @ 166 MHz)
Now I have four of those for a total of 1024 MB of RAM. Up there it says @200mhz. The memory is Corsair PC3200 DDR PC400 which means I'm getting half of what I should be, right? So if I could get it up to 400mhz, my system would run better (which is what I really want). Does anyone know how to change this?
 
DDR ram runs at Double Data Rate. Therefore, it appears to be running at 400MHz when it actually works at 200MHz. That is right.
