Hyper-threading
Hyper Threading Technology can improve performance by splitting instructions into
multiple streams. This item is enabled for Windows XP and Linux (OS optimized for
Hyper-Threading Technology) and disabled for other OS (OS not optimized for
Threading Technology). When this item is disabled, only one thread per enabled core
is enabled.
Options:
Enabled (Default) / Disabled
Active Processor Cores
This item sets number of cores to enable in each processor package.
Options:
All (Default) / 1 / 2 / 3
Limit CPUID Maximum
When the computer is booted up, the operating system executes the CPUID
instruction to identify the processor and its capabilities. Before it can do so, it must
first query the processor to find out the highest input value CPUID recognizes. This
determines the kind of basic information CPUID can provide the operating system.
