I have 3 settings in the bios and I was wondering about a recommendation. (there is only 1 CPU in this machine and NO way to add another) but I do want to get any benefit from HTT - presuming a benefit actually exists. "single processor MP table" - Enabled/Disabled "MP Table version" - 1.1/1/4 "Hyperthreading" - Enabled/Disabled (I set that to ENABLED of course) The BIOS claims better performance with the 1st one DISABLED. Any comments will be appreciated! thanks- -- J.D.
