Well, perhaps the BIOS has been upgraded and your 3000+ is installed....but
have you upgraded the memory to match the new front side bus (FSB) speeds
you're attempting to reach? If not, you've identified your problem.

The 3000+ FSB runs at 166mhz. This requires memory that runs at or above
this speed. So DDR 2700 or 3200 should be used.
