HT cpu Works fine in Windows 2000
"David Vantongerloo" wrote in message ynet.net... ? ? Will Windows 2000 Work fine wen HT is on or do i have to disable HT on CPU ? ? It will work fine, but it's not optimized for it. The biggest problem is when one virtual CPU is doing useful work and the other is spinning. Windows 2000 doesn't know how to properly idle the other processor and it may wind up stealing execution units from the processor doing useful work, thus causing the other processor to spin for even longer. If you don't care if you might see a bit of a slowdown in some cases, then don't worry about it. (Can you tweak the default spin count and lower it? I remember there being a setting for that in the registry?) DS |
