Hi SlickVic78,

Thank you!
I like my new 3.00 GHz P4 too.
You can also see in Device Manager > Processors, there will be two 3.06 GHz processors listed when you have HTT enabled.

Also another thing I noticed (I don't know if I am right) if a program supports HTT, the Performance graghs for both processors in Windows Task Manger changes quite similarly *if* the program supports HTT.

For example, I encoded a video in Windows Media Encoder and since the process is highly CPU intensive, the both Processor graphs went 100% and the Task Manager showed a combined percentage of around 100%
I encoded the same movie in Dr. DivX, and the the combined percentage was only around 53%. One processor graph was around 99% and the other processor graph was around 5%.

So from that experience, I concluded Windows Media Encoder supports Hyper Threading while Dr. DivX does not. I may be wrong.
