Hyperthreading on Windows XP Service pack 1
I have a Dell GX280 with windows XP service pack 1 and enabled hyperthreading
in the bios. If I look in device manager under processors I see two processors. When I look in task manager under performance I only see one instance for the processor. Would like to know if this is normal and is the OS taking using hyperthreading to its fullest? -- ray3d84 |

Hyperthreading on Windows XP Service pack 1
Hi,
In Task Manager - Performance tab, go to View - and enabled the option to show multiple graphs for multiple CPUs. For more information take a look at the following article.

Your suggestion to show multiple graphs for multiple CPUs is not an option
that I have. -- ray3d84 "Bert Kinney" wrote: Hi, In Task Manager - Performance tab, go to View - and enabled the option to show multiple graphs for multiple CPUs.
