Hyper-Threading
You can enable (the default setting is
Enabled
) Hyper-Threading from the
Advanced Menu
in the BIOS (see
“Hyper
Threading Technology (Advanced Menu)” on page 26
). Hyper-Threading is only supported in
computers with pro-
cessors which are specified as supporting Hyper-Threading Technology (see
“Processor Types” on page 31
)
.
The menu option in the BIOS will not appear if you do not have a processor which supports Hyper-Threading.
Hyper-Threading is only supported in
Windows XP
OS, or
Windows 2000
with Service Pack 4 installed
.
If you have updated the Flash ROM BIOS from a previous version, which did not have the
Hyper Threading Tech-
nology
option, you must
reinstall
Windows
(and any Service Packs necessary) after the BIOS update.
Once you have enabled Hyper-Threading, DO NOT disable the option or the computer may not startup (returning to
the BIOS and enabling the option will correct this in case of accidental disabling of the option).
If you are changing the processor from a CPU which supports Hyper-Threading, to one which does not, you will need
to reinstall your OS.
