Just a question. Where did you get that answer? I am asking because I have a Dell Poweredge dual PIII 1 gig server here. The reason I got it was to build a high end dev box/workstation on it. Now in reading game magazines, and stuff I was under the impression that as long as you were on windows 2000 that you were using both processors full time? I may be wrong but I would just like to see it somewhere.

The answer is "no" the operating system determines the processor usage. When processor 1 is all used up, then the OS instructs the system to begin using both processors to carry the load. Only one processor is used during minimal usage. "Success is a journey, not a destination!!"
