Enable this field for Windows XP and Linux which are optimized for Hyper-Threading
technology. Select disabled for other OSes not optimized for Hyper-Threading technology.
When disabled, only one thread per enabled core is enabled.
Active Processor Cores
Number of cores to enable in each processor package.
Limit CPUID Maximum
The CPUID instruction of some newer CPUs will return a value greater than 3. The default
is Disabled because this problem does not exist in the Windows series operating systems.
If you are using an operating system other than Windows, this problem may occur. To
avoid this problem, enable this field to limit the return value to 3 or less than 3.
Intel Virtualization Technology
When this field is set to Enabled, the VMM can utilize the additional hardware capabilities
provided by Vanderpool Technology.
