Step 7—Configure the operating system
Windows XP
After the workstation has undergone a software unbundling process, a Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL)
upgrade is necessary when installing a second processor. However, Windows XP detects the new processor
and automatically performs the HAL upgrade. Follow the prompts under the Found New Hardware
message to reboot.
Red Hat Linux
All versions of Red Hat Linux automatically detect the new processor hardware. In addition, Red Hat
Linux, as shipped with HP xw6400 and xw8400 Workstations, is preconfigured with an SMP kernel.
