[:-?] Hyperthreading... hmmm

[BigWill]

I got my K series around about a year ago. I got one with a P4 so i wouldnt have to replace it for a while, - and to show off to my friends stuck with their x86 systems :smileygrin: .
Anyways, i ran some benchmarking software today, and according to the software and as a complete surprise to me, my system supports hyperthreading but its disabled .
So, my question is.. can i enable HT, is it safe, or am i trying to do something impossible.

LOL, start the Taskmanager.

If your VAIO support HT then its active.
Start the Taskmanager. There schould be two CPUs. If not then your VAIO doesn't support TH.

The most benchmark software shows strange System information, which are incorrect.

Try PC MARK, SYSmark and 3D MARK. And any older version of Aquamark. The newest wouldn't run on your VAIO.

Sony have been known to disable HT though, it's nothing new
