Multiple CPU configuration

External Since: Jul 17, 2005 Posts: 1

Hi all,

I have an older system (P3-Xeon) that has dual CPUs in it, but XP seems to
only be using one. In device manager, I see them both, but I don't see them
anywhere else. Anybody have any ideas how to make XP use them both?

XP Home Edition supports one (1) CPU
XP Pro supports one (1) or two (2) CPUs

Which version of Windows XP did you install?
