Question RAM Upgrade not working

First of all - sorry if this is in the wrong area, it coulld have gone into so many areas!!!

I have a ASRock P4i65GV Motherboard and have bought 2 1GB PC-3200 RAM.

However my motherboard will not recognise the RAM.

The sticks are brand new, but I id not clear the BIOS first. I updated the BIOS to the latest that I could find as I thought it was that.

I now have a feeling that the reason is that the Motherboard can handle the Memory but the processor can't.

According to CPUz:

Processor
Processor 1 (ID = 0)
Number of cores 1 (max 1)
Number of threads 1 (max 1)
Name Intel Celeron
Codename Northwood
Specification Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 2.00GHz
Package Socket 478 mPGA (platform ID = 2h)
CPUID F.2.9
Extended CPUID F.2
Brand ID 10
Core Stepping D1
Technology 0.13 um
Core Speed 1900.1 MHz (20.0 x 95.0 MHz)
Rated Bus speed 380.0 MHz
Stock frequency 2000 MHz
Instructions sets MMX, SSE, SSE2
L1 Data cache 8 KBytes, 4-way set associative, 64-byte line size
Trace cache 12 Kuops, 8-way set associative
L2 cache 128 KBytes, 2-way set associative, 64-byte line size
FID/VID Control no

Motherboard
AS Rock P4i65G

The manual said -

CPU FSB Frequency Memory Support Frequency
800 DDR266, DDR320*, DDR400

Quote:
* When you use an FSB800-CPU on this motherboard, it will run at
DDR320 if you adopt a DDR333 memory module.


So I guess I need a bigger processor - starting to get a little over my head now.

Any Suggestions?
