I am running Win2K SP4, on a dual Xeon server. Window's is detecting 4 processors. I am concerned that this may cause unforseen issues with the unit. Is this an issue with Win2K?
I have 2 poweredge servers with twin zeon processors in and they both show as having 4 processors, it's a bit odd but i've been running them for a while now and haven't had to reeboot them once they seem very stable. I am running 2003 server tho.
You will be using CPU's with the Hyper Threading technology incorporated in them. Each CPU reports to Windows that there are 2 so Windows picks up 4 instead of 2.
You wont be getting 4 CPU performance but it will be better than 2 CPU depending on the work being done.
