Hello
We upgraded our workstation to Intel P4 with hyperthreading and now Windows
XP is seeing 2 processors.
Now Excel 2003 is working slower than before because it works only on 1
processor and it's stuck at 50% of the global CPU speed.
Big macros or spreadsheet with lots (thousands) of formulas which we
calculated manually (with F9) are taking about 40-50% more time (15 min
instead of 10 minutes)
So we disabled the HT functionnality in the bios and excel takes 100% of CPU
Time. But now, other software which were advantaged by the multi-processor
environment are not working as well.
Is there a way for excel to use the multi-processor ability?
Thanks in advance
