Guess I was proved wrong. Thank you for the help. It's very much appreciated. -Dan

I didn't know/think hypertreading was enabled on these chips. Thought it just came out on the 2.4+ ghz xeon chips. -dan -----Original Message----- From: Rick Johnson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 04, 2002 11:26 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: kernel reports wrong number of CPU's installed in system What type of CPU's are in there? I see you've configured for P///. If they're a P4 (or Xeon based on P4), and w/ proper bios support, you may have HyperThreading enabled (they seem to be touting it in their latest CPU, but I've seen it enabled on earlier dells as well). With it enabled, the OS can see 2x the processors as really installed. Otherwise you may need to verify that you've got the latest ROMPAQ's applied to ensure this isn't a BIOS reporting problem.
