Using the PL-Pro/II Utility Software
PowerLeap
�
Installation Guide
Use this utility to increase the L2 cache latency if your system becomes unstable
with the PL-Pro/II. The default value in the current version is "L2-Cache Latency
= 5". To improve system stability, try increasing the L2 latency (for example, to
10).
Note: This software utility is intended for advanced users.
It's not a good idea to use this program if you don't have a
firm knowledge of editing the Windows registry.
Using the PL-Pro/II with Dual-CPU Systems
The WCPUID utility allows dual-CPU systems to identify both primary and
secondary processors. Since the PowerLeap CPU Control Panel at present can
only give information about the primary processor, this freeware utility is useful
for dual-CPU systems because it correctly identifies both CPUs. This utility runs
on Windows 95, 98 and Windows NT (4.0 and up), Windows 2000 in both
Japanese and English languages.
Note: To use the PL-Pro/II with a dual-CPU system, make
sure that you have SMP-capable Celeron CPUs. Only PPGA
Celerons support SMP function, FC-PGA Celerons are not
SMP-compliant. In addition, if the CPU packaging includes
wording such as �Uniprocessor Only,� the CPUs will not
support dual-CPU operation.
