hyperthreading?

A technology developed by Intel that enables multithreaded software applications to execute threads in parallel on a single multi-core processor instead of processing threads in a linear fashion. Older systems took advantage of dual-processing threading in software by splitting instructions into multiple streams so that more than one processor could act upon them at once.

When your in Windows, press CTRL+ALT+DEL, go to the performance tab, and tell us if there are one or two boxes across from the "cpu usage" display.
 
theres cpu usage then a rectangular box next to it that says cpu usage history, then under the cpu usage box it says pf usage and next to it theres another recangular box that says page file usage history...
 
Try going into the BIOS settings and search for hyper-threading, it may have an option for enable or disable.
 
matrix-i posted the question of how to enable it after omega had posted with a step in how to answer it and i thought my post was redundant and did not need to be there, and I couldnt delete it...so i just said that
 
When you go to the task manager, if hyperthreading is enabled then you will see two graphs across from the "cpu usage" display, if there is only on long rectangular box, then its not enabled.
 
haha...I knew it was disabled and i was asking how to enable it, but thanks for telling me again...Ill try going into my bios tomorrow after school like matrix evo suggested.

Thanks for all the help, Ill keep you posted if it doesnt work!
 
if u cant find hyperthreading in your BIOS setting then ur motherboard or CPU doesnt have hyperthreading
 
I know it supports hyperthreading because it said that hyperthreading was disabled on pcmark05, do you know what I should look for in the BIOS, do you think you could make steps on how I could find it in my BIOS, If so I would greatly appreciate it

wen u restart ur comp, right after u see ur video card spec blink, press F2 or del to enter bios setup mode
different manufacturer have different way of getting in setup
generally, its F2 or del sometime its F10 <-- on compaq PCs (i think)
 
check every setting, especially main options.......
somewhere there should mention HT

what is ur mainboard and ur CPU brand and model, i could check that out 4 u
