So in Vista when we gave a certain process to a certain core, when the computer was restarted it was all back to normal on all four cores.
Does any one know if Windows 7 keeps these settings? That would be very useful!
I need a processor that can run a 3d architectural program without freezing on large sites, an intel i7 is recommended, but its a little pricey. Will the i3 with 6 gig ram will work. I am using the Chief Architect Program to render 65 2 bedroom house on 30 acres

Time of this report: 5/4/2012, 12:46:55
Machine name: PASHA-PC
Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit (6.1, Build 7601) Service Pack 1 (7601.win7sp1_gdr.120305-1505)
[Code]....
I have an HP Z800 with Dual W5580's and 48GB of memory. As many of you know, you can enable the "Hyperthreading" to get 16 virtual cores.
Does anyone know if Win 7 will see all of these cores?
If not does anyone know of a Vista or Win 7 hack that will allow the full use of all the cores?
For those that care, this machine is part of a larger distributed farm that runs traffic simulation software. Benchmarks on equivalent DL160G6 w/Server 2003 R2 have shown worthwhile improvement in runtimes with "hyperthreading" enabled, so we are inclined to have it enabled on the Z800. The workstation does not support a Win Server install (several attempts have failed) and so we are limited to XP 64, Vista 64 and Windows 7.
I just finished a build with Windows 7 Professional and going into task manager, it shows that I have 8 cores instead of 4.
I have an Intel i7 930 and an EVGA GTX 570HD and even in device manager it shows that I have 10 total cores.
I build my pc about 6 month ago, My PC specification:[CODE]fter one month my windows start showing BSOD every week once, i thought it's a software problem, but about two weeks my pc start to be very slow and keep crashing even if i browsing internet the internet browser crashed, so i decide to format my hard disk and install windows 7, when i boot from windows dvd and format my hard disk and start copying files after finish copying files it's show BSOD and restart my pc i thought from ram or hard disk, but i searched in the internet and i founded that i should try to make your cpu work with one core, so i changed it to one core, I installed the windows and everything fine but when i changed it back to 4 cores the problem back.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHere is a processor that my friend recommend me get for my gaming needs, I have 8gig Ram GTX 570 Home Premium 64bit
and here is the processer (Quad Core) Mike's Computer Shop - CORE I7 3.5G 8MB SR0 920492 And im just wondering if i should get that one or get an i7-3770k
I was looking into getting an HP Envy 17/Asus G73JH, and I know that both sport core i7-quad processors, and due to hyperthreading, it'll appear to the OS as 8.
My question is, will Windows 7 Home Premium be able to read all of these cores, or will I have to use my windows 7 Professional license upgrade in order for it to take advantage of all the cores?
And also, what's the maximum amount of cores that Windows 7 Home Premium, Professional, and Ultimate can see?
Are there any specific versions of microsoft office (2003/2007/2010) that can take advantage of the 4 cores / 8 threads of an i7 CPU? Or, are all of these versions multi threaded and equally capable of using the power of an i7 CPU?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI was going through my Device Manager and I click on Processors. It shows that I have four of the same driver, Intel Core i3 CPU M370 @ 2.40GHz. All of these are also listed as being in the same location. Is this normal? Could this may be what's been causing my recent freezing problems?
View 7 Replies View RelatedTom’s Hardware readers know all about overclocking, of course. In fact, many processor and graphics card reviews would be deemed incomplete without coverage of overclocking potential. Indeed, articles such as the System Builder Marathon series have a long history of specifically valuing performance achieved through overclocking rather than just through stock performance.
If you already consider yourself an enthusiast, pardon a bit of background here--we'll get into the nitty-gritty technical stuff in just a second.
What exactly is overclocking? In a nutshell, the term is used to describe running a component at a higher speed than its specification in an attempt to increase performance. Various computer components can be overclocked, including the processor, memory, and graphics card. And the degree of overclocking can include anything from simply procuring small gains from an inexpensive component all the way to seeking a level of performance way beyond what could even be purchased at that point in time.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAfter my Z68 Extreme 4 Motherboard died and I had to take out the processor to RMA it, I started considering upgrading. My Core i5 2500k is on ebay and I was going to buy a Core i7 2600k. However, now I am looking towards the Ivy Bridge Processors coming out in the New Year. Apparently they will use the same socket (1155), but the motherboard will need a Bios update. If I don't have a processor until I get the new one, how will I be able to upgrade the chipset so that the new processor will work with the motherboard?
View 3 Replies View Relatedlet me begin by saying that I am completely new to this forum as well as I am a new user of Windows 7. My laptop was running a Vista OS but it was acting up horribly, so I decided to simply install Windows 7 and it's working pleaI am one for typing and creating a mass amount of text documents and such on which was Microsoft Works that came installed on my Vista. I no longer have any Microsoft Works, or Microsoft Office for that matter, so I can't type besides on Notepad and I would rather not. I tried to install Open Office but it wouldn't install for whatever reason and I am stuck again.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAs you increase the number of processors the performance improvement diminishes compared with the expected result -- for instance a system with 8 processors won't perform 8 times faster than a system with one processor due to the ovehead of managing the extra complexity of the interaction of all the processors. (Note the system will still be FAST of course !!).
Now wouldn't it be better to design say 128 and 256 bit architectures in the OS so you could still run many tasks concurrently but without the overhead of the multi processor environment - or at least have far less processors in the MP environment.
it was rumoured a while back that Windows 8 would have some 128 bit possibility -- I don't think there are any commercially available chips yet but thats only a matter of time.
I have an issue with my system.
- ASUS M4N68T-M LE V2 MoBo
- Processor is AMD phenom II X4 965 Black Edition.
- One Stick of 2Gb memory DDR 3
- ATI Radeon 6870 Sapphire.
If I restart my system (and this happens like out of 100 restarts 97 times) the system would be on the black post screen and say that the CPU is not compatible with my mobo. Then in order to resolve this I have to got to BIOs and turn on all the cpu cores and the unleashing mode under CPU and restart. Then it would reflect that all the **4 cores are active** and then it would work fine. But why does this happen after every restart. I thought it was CMOS battery but the date and time and other BIOS settings are fine.
Wondering what processor is better equipped to stream and play HD video to an HDMI port... AMD E350 or Intel Atom? Im looking to purchase a mini pc to attached to my TV to play HD video with VLC and stream from the net. Currently I'm looking at Foxcon, Zotac and Asus Eee pc's.

I want to upgrade and will be changing to an AMD 6 core & ASUS Mb, also w/onboard SATA & video. Any techniques that would allow me to take my SATA boot drive and move it to the new Proc & MB and get it to boot & run? I know I am changing just about every important component there is, but by chance is there any method out there that would allow me to avoid re-installation?

another question - what will I lose if I don't have VT in my laptop? My ultimate aim is to run Win Server 2008 R2 x64 in my laptop along with existing Win 7 Home Premium x64. How can I do that? Can somebody please help me in this regard?
I have a quad-core AMD Athlon II 640 Processor. I always figured I have all 4 cores running at the same time, but today I noticed in msconfig>boot>advanced>number of processors that the default number of processors is one. I've recently had a number of freezes, and wondered if i were to increase the number of processors, would my computer's behavior change at all?

View 15 Replies View RelatedOn my dual core laptop, running win 7 x64, I have been tweaking the boot configuration to extend battery life and performance. I changed the advanced boot processor setting from "2" to "1" in the "msconfig" panel. Now the boots are much slower and the battery life is not even positively affected. I cannot change this anymore in the "msconfig"! The option that used to be there, "2", is now gone, and if I uncheck it, it is just as slow as "1".

View 4 Replies View RelatedMy power settings do not tell Windows 7 to cap processor performance at 25%. I've got a Dell XPS M1330, which is a fairly "old" machine in the modern market, but still performs well when Windows 7 isn't pulling this crap. I've tried resetting power settings, I've brought it in to a shop to check the CPU fan and core temperature and that all checked out, but the Resource Monitor still shows the processor being throttled to a quarter of it's potential.
