create a multiprocessor (MP) table for

Windows NT use. In a single-processor
system running Windows NT, you may
disable this parameter to enhance
system performance. If you install
another CPU for a dual system, enable
this parameter then reinstall Windows
NT.

Version
the version of the multiprocessor speci-

Hyper-
Enables or disables the hyperthread-
Threading
ing function of the processor.
Technology
When enabled, one physical processor
acts as two logical processors by
"threading" two sets of data instruc-
tions in parallel streams of processing.
The processor can then simultaneously
manage incoming data from different
applications without losing track of the
data processing status of each.
Note: When a processor does not sup-
port the Hyper-Threading feature, this
parameter will be grayed out.
