just ghost my server from one cpu to a dual cpu, when i click on task manager, it only shows one cpu
any way to re-activate the 2nd one without re-installing it ?
Right Click My Computer.-> Properties
Hardware , Device Manager
Select > Computer , and expand.
You will see something like : Uni Processor PC.
Change the driver to a multi CPU
The manufacturer of the Server will have a setup program(on web maybe) that will update the kernel and other files to set the box in multi mode. You should use the setup from the manufacturer in case they requier bios updates or custom drivers for the WIndows system.
I have done this for Compaq Proliant with the Resources Kit utility (didn't work) and with the setup program on the CD shipped withthe Proliant (did work.
As an alternat you can usually re-install the OS with bot CPU installed and have the correct kernel load. Do an "upgrade install" i believe works.
i got it, i did exactly what jaxone said, under APCI
it works, setup up disk doesn't sometime quite work, i am trying to convert a dell precision workstation dual intel 700 to be a server, just adding extra cooling for my cheetah drives
