Windows 7 - Advanced Boot Options

| | Advanced Boot Options After looking at this thread, I went to the options and noticed that the Number of Processes checkbox was unchecked and the drop down list was grayed out. I have an E6750 CPU, so it's a Duo Core 2, thus has 2 processors. What effect on my computer/booting would checking this box have and selecting 2 as the number of processes? If left Unchecked, does Windows determine itself what my CPU is, how many processors it has and makes full use of it, or do I have to manually make this setting? Would this increase my bootup time? Would it have any affect on how my computer runs while in use? |

| | Hello Josh, When this box is unchecked, Windows will use all processors/cores by default. This feature is only for testing purposes to see if one processor/core is bad or not. Processors - Limit Number Used by Windows 7 Hope this helps, Shawn |
