From: Pennywise on 23 Jul 2010 06:46 I check out google for this group, deleted a mess of 2009 messages, and nothing new showed up, but Agent 1.93 doesn't like the 64bit system; only thing that I came across with the same problem was a AMD with a driver problem, and one addressing a licenses problem. I just built a new system, P6X85D, i7-930, dual booting XPro 32 which I've used forever, it was last used on a P4 - 915 (HT) 3Ghz, It showed 2 cpu's all the time; the cpu and the thread. and a new XP 64bit OS. I've always dual booted, Win95/NT since day one, very nice and a great back door for problems. The problem is the 32 bit system only shows one CPU, I think the first of four (8 with threads). Task manager is set up to show multiple cpu's. Xp64 shows all 8 cpu's or 4 cores and threads. No problems here. Any clue why XP32 only shows one cpu? FWIW - this bothers me but it's working. It show up on both systems. Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment] "NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS"="8" (XP32 shows "1" everything else is the same.) "OS"="Windows_NT" "PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE"="AMD64" "PROCESSOR_IDENTIFIER"="EM64T Family 6 Model 26 Stepping 5, GenuineIntel" "PROCESSOR_LEVEL"="6" "PROCESSOR_REVISION"="1a05" Xp64 installer (shows among other things) Inf supports 64 bit. Manufacturer = INTEL_SYS,NTAMD64 Resolved Manufacturer = INTEL_SYS.NTAMD64 Xp32bit installer Inf supports 64 bit. Manufacturer = INTEL_SYS,NTAMD64 Resolved Manufacturer = INTEL_SYS Any clues or help, would be appreciated. This is the first place I've asked this question. So really don't know what else to say.

From: Bobby Johnson on 23 Jul 2010 07:30 So why are you asking about your 32-bit XP in a 64-bit OS group? I recommend you check out the website of the manufacturer for possible clues and solutions.

From: Charlie Russel-MVP on 24 Jul 2010 01:18 The problem is your 32-bit OS will only recognize a single CPU. If you didn't install it for multiple CPUs initially, that's all you get. (And you aren't clear which 32-bit OS you're talking about here, either. Some won't recognize more than a single CPU, some won't recognize more than one unless you explicitly install the multi-CPU kernel. -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/blogs/Russel <Pennywise(a)DerryMaine.Gov> wrote in message news:lpoi469oan9pksolo3mev0545g6tm2toim(a)4ax.com... > > I check out google for this group, deleted a mess of 2009 messages, and > nothing new showed up, but Agent 1.93 doesn't like the 64bit system; only > thing that I came across with the same problem was a AMD with a driver > problem, and one addressing a licenses problem. > > I just built a new system, P6X85D, i7-930, dual booting XPro 32 which I've > used forever, it was last used on a P4 - 915 (HT) 3Ghz, It showed 2 cpu's > all > the time; the cpu and the thread. and a new XP 64bit OS. > > I've always dual booted, Win95/NT since day one, very nice and a great > back > door for problems. > > The problem is the 32 bit system only shows one CPU, I think the first of > four > (8 with threads).

Plus if anybody is running XP64bit they have a good chance of knowing about a 32 bit problem. >I recommend you check out the website of the manufacturer for possible >clues and solutions. I do better on the newsgroups, Plus I've done those checks already, and not from websites of Intel and Microsoft. There are better sites for this. But thank for the input. -- http://www.gametrailers.com/user-movie/1k-project-ii/12321

That actually helps, I've run into phrase "ACPI uniprocessor system" it's a mess to track it down, so I backed off in hopes of a simpler path. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/309283/en-us It was a new install, XP pro SP3, never asked about the Prescott chip; figured it would notice a quad core. Hey sometimes you have to load and hope, google if it goes bad :) Thanks for the reply. -- http://www.gametrailers.com/user-movie/1k-project-ii/12321 |
