    Running an SR2 with X5650's with HT disabled, all Cores enabled, crunching Rosetta, NO PROBLEM.

    Core 2 Duo(Conroe) was based on the Intel Core Duo(Yonah) which was based on the Pentium M(Banias) which was based on the Pentium III(Coppermine).

    Core 2 Duo is a Pentium III on meth.

    I realise that, but someone mentioned earlier that he didn't disable any cores, only HT and killed his chips, so I thought I'd throw in my experance with HT off on the Xeons to show that I haven't killed my chips(yet, knock on wood)

    If you disable cores in windows, will it be the same? Maybe it has something to do with bios related problems while disabling?
