Hi Guys,

Hoping someone might have a better idea than i do.

My server running a single P4 3.0Ghz, thinks that it has 2, its running centos 5 and it most certainly thinks it has 2 cpus.

Any ideas?

It's probably a hyper-threading CPU which show up as two cores.

Intel

Does the CPU support Hyperthreading? Or is it dual core? That sometimes causes OSs to see it as two CPUs...

Edit: Doh, must type faster...

for some reason my core2duo comes up as two cpu's as well for some reason :confused:

ahhh it has HT.. that would be why then!

Thanks!!

Don't suppose you know the model number?

I seem to remember anything with a "D" prefix on the P4's signified dual core.......got a D925 (2 x 3.0ghz) and a D840 (2 x 3.2ghz) here on my work desk.

ht = hyperthreading

thing is doing my head in anyway.. it keeps crashing when you access a samba share on it.. it will work fine, then out of the blue the whole things falls over. but its always when accessing a samba share!
