    Hi ,

    Configuration is
    RAM--> 3 GB
    Hard Disk--> 320
    Graphics Card--> 512 MB ATI

    I want to disable the Hyperthreading but I am not able to find the hyperthreading option either in BIOS setup
    or programs and features.

    What processor are you using?

    Do you know for a fact that it supports hyper-threading? Most Intel CPUs do not.

    If you are using a Intel Core 2 duo, it does not have hyper threading.

    Many Intel Processors do have hyper threading, however.

    Then you don't have hyper-threading and there is nothing to turn off. Some later Intel processors from the Sandy Bridge and newer generations do have hyper-threading, but it does not apply to you.
