Performance on Windows 2003 Standard w/ SQL SERVER 2000 Enterprise

I have SQL SERVER 2K Enterprise SP4 installed on a Windows 2003 standard box
with 4G of memory and 2 XEON CPUs with hyperthreading. All the SQL SERVER
configuration is set to use all available resource on the box. But no matter
what we throw at it. It's using only 25% of CPU resource and the memory
usuage is never over 1.7G. The installation is definately Enterprise and not
standard. What am I missing?

The CPU utilization may mean nothing. Did you set the BOOT.INI switches
for the additional memory?
