Add a Second Processor

[Guest]

I add a second processor to an Intel N440Bx, update the BIOS and in the setup and the board recognizes the second processor
In the 2000 Server in the Device Manager I still see "ACPI uniprocessor PC". What is missing to see "dual processor"?

You need to update the HAL in the device manager to a multiprocessor HAL.

I add a second processor to an Intel N440Bx, update the BIOS and in the

setup and the board recognizes the second processor.

In the 2000 Server in the Device Manager I still see "ACPI uniprocessor

PC". What is missing to see "dual processor"?
