CPU Configuration
The following parameters can be set in this menu. Some of them are only
available under special preconditions.
Hyper-Threading
Hyper-threading technology allows a single physical processor core to
appear as several logical processors. With this technology the operating
system can better utilize the internal processor resources, which in turn
leads to increased performance. The advantages of this technology can
only be used by an operating system which supports ACPI. This setting
has no effect on operating systems which do not support ACPI.
Disabled
An ACPI operating system can only use the first logical processor
of a processor core. This setting should only be used if hyper-
threading technology has not been correctly implemented in the
ACPI operating system.
Enabled
An ACPI operating system can use all logical processors within a
physical processor.
Active Processor Cores
For processors that contain multiple processor cores, the number of
active processor cores can be limited. Inactive processor cores will not
be used and hidden from the operating system.
0
All available processor cores are active and can be used.
1...n
Only the selected number of processor cores are active. The
remaining processor cores are deactivated.
I
This selection may solve problems with specific software
packages or system licenses.
