Go up one level in this thread


First thing to do is check your BIOS.  Make sure you have the latest BIOS update
and try to read up on XP64 support through the BIOS.

Second thing I would check is to make sure that your OS was installed with 2
processors installed.  I remember a few years back when I setup a dual celeron
motherboard Abit BP-6 (at that time that was a big deal), that if I installed
the OS with only 1 cpu, then if I added another cpu it wouldn't see it.  It
would only setup with both cpu's if the installation was natively done with both
processors up and running during the installation phase.  I am not sure if this
is the problem but is worth a check.
