XP with dual core

1LoveridgeC · 3 Feb 2007 at 08:54

I decided not to get Vista for 6 months or so, but that's not the point.

If I have a dual core system, am I right in thinking that I need to have XPpro for it to use the dual core, will this not happen on XP home??

nope - xp home is fine with dual core

1LoveridgeC · 3 Feb 2007 at 09:08

Sure? Cos I'm being told you need x64XPPro?

I hope you're right

Sorry, my fault

is the 75 a definite max, or can I use a 330x110 of mine? Still small

I think the thing with Home is that it doesn't support two actual physical cpu's?
