Advanced settings

On some computer models, the Advanced settings menu includes a setting to Enable/Disable HyperThreading. This feature works only with HyperThreading-aware operating systems such as Microsoft Windows XP. The default setting for HyperThreading is Enabled. However, if you select Set Defaults (HyperThreading is Enabled) and are using an operating system other than Windows XP, your computer performance might be degraded. Therefore, you should always set HyperThreading to disabled unless you are sure your operating system supports hyperthreading.
