HyperThreading problem ...

[Leythos]

I've tried, and that's true, the list only displays the two last HAL and I
have to use the arrow key to go up to the ACPI multiprocessor .... crazy but
true, so my problem is solved ....

So, you're saying that after installing the "ACPI Multi" that you now can
see all processors?

No, what I said is that the installation CD is buggy. The list that display
the HAL options (when pressing F5 instead of F6 on a clean install from CD)
only displays the last two choices (only two lines in the list box):
Standard PC with C-Step i486
-Other
Compared to Windows Server 2003 that displays the whole list in one box. So
when the list is displayed during the Windows XP Pro installation, I must
scroll up using the arrow keys to select what is hidden. So I can install
Windows XP Pro now with ACPI multiprocessor instead of ACPI uniprocessor.

And yes I can see the two processors now after installing ACPI
multiprocessors HAL.
