Processor not detected by Windows 2000 Server
Hello,
we have 2 servers PE6400 with 2 x Pentium III.
Recently we have found that on one of them only 1 processor is visible by Windows (DELL tools report 2 processors correctly)
What to do with such case?.
In Device Manager under Processor is value ACPI Multiprocessor.
Maybe switch to ACPI Uniproc, and back?\
Regards,
Marek Papala

Switching to ACPI Uniproc, and back to ALCPI Multiproc works good.
Now 2 processors are visible.

May I ask what ACPI is and how I can try switching it. I have a somewhat similer problem in that I have a PE1300 with 2 x 450mhz PIII in a box with Win 2000 Server and its showing that the box has PII instead of PIII. At least I think this is the case as I am still trying to figure out what the info below means. The bios in the PE1300 shows the correct processors, its just windows that's showing the wrong processors.
Processor x86 Family 6 Model 7 Stepping 2 GenuineIntel ~447 Mhz
Processor x86 Family 6 Model 7 Stepping 2 GenuineIntel ~447 Mhz
I believe this is telling me that I have two PII 450mhz installed and it should be something like the info below which is from a 2 x PIII 750mhz from a different box.
Processor x86 Family 6 Model 8 Stepping 3 GenuineIntel ~751 Mhz
Processor x86 Family 6 Model 8 Stepping 3 GenuineIntel ~751 Mhz
Thanks,
