I understand that XP(e) has support for HT processors and can have two
physical x two logical processors. Do I need the Multiprocessor HAL or
Singleprocessor HAL ? My image is built now with the multi pc and it works.
Will this work also on a single pc correctly ?
And another question about the system time slices: on a NT machine it was 10
ms and for multi pc 15 ms, is it the same on XPe with HT ?
 
Hi Johannes,

Multiprocessor ACPI/HAL will work on uniprocessors but slightly slower than UP one.
For HTT or more processors you should use multiprocessor HAL to use it up to it full potential.

Regards,
Slobodan
