Just enter your machines BIOS at boot up (press 'Del' during boot typically)and then navigate to the "Timings" or "advanced Chipset features" page. Different BIOS manufacturers use different page names but its the page where clock frequencies will be listed. There should be an entry for 'Auto ...

Check out my postings on the HT subject in various forums on Planet Z. Works superbly for me now. Just search for postings by Sean_Middleton

Maybe not, given that CPU's are pretty fast these days, but you can squeeze an extra 10% without any risk so why not ? Extreme over clocking is very likely to result in crashes or damage (say >25%) so I don’t go there but I can run my machine as hard as I like at 15% over clocked speed without error ...

One other thing that may be worth noting is that when I set ACPI to ‘standard – non multiprocessor’ SFP works fine but at anything more than 3 stereo ASIO channels (using the new ASIO 1 -32 in 24 bit mode with Logoc 5.5.1) I get very regular ASIO overloads. If, however I set the SFP application to a ...

Most decent motherboards bought within the last 2 years should allow U to mess around quite a lot with IRQ's Note that some BIOS's require you to enter a keyboard sequence to see the 'advanced BIOS options’. This is typically Ctr+F1, unless you do this you don’t get to see the advanced IRQ type ...

With HT processors WIn XP gives 4 options to do with ACPI. Standard PC, ACPI (standard), Multiprocessor ACPI and one other which I can't remember (I'm at the office on a none HT Machine). Of course you wont get the Multiprocessor ACPI option if you dont have a HT CPU+MB machine.

There seems to be a major problem with SFP 4 and HT processors (Intel 875 chipset). SFP4 frequently locks up the machine completely and you need to reset the PC. If you can get ‘Windows Task Manager’ started (sometimes you can but often the machine is just totally locked up and you cant start WTM ...
