Proccessors
Hi, I have a Dell Dimension 8400. I didnt purchase selecting 2 Proccessors, and from no where on the site does it say it should have 2. I got this system last december. So my computer has been telling me ever since i got it there are two proccessors. Task manager has two graphs, both displaying different "lines".
Device Manager was saying
Proccessors
Intel(R) Pentuim(R) 4 CPU 3.20Ghz
Intel(R) Pentuim(R) 4 CPU 3.19Ghz
So my computer was posotive there were two. Now its saying there is only 1 "Intel(R) Pentuim(R) 4 CPU 3.20Ghz"
Whats going on?

Webbywise.Hyper-Threading details > page 33 of the D8400 owner's manual.Bev.Webbywise,
When you first ordered you 8400, this was the first part of the order form that came up:
"Base Model Includes:IntelTM PentiumTM 4 processor 630 with HT Technology (3.0GHz, 800 FSB, 2MB L2 cache)"
HT or Hyperthreading is shown and reported to you by showing two processors. You might want to read your documentation so you know how to use what you purchased.
If it is now showing only one processor, then HT probably has been disabled for some reason. Just reenable it to have HT turned back on.
