[Guest]

We are running Service Pack 6a.

What is the easist way to add a 2nd CPU to a single CPU system?

We've installed the 2nd CPU, but NT 4.0 does not recognize it and we get a
blue screen of death. Any ideas?

Thanks,
lb

You probably need to run UPtoMP:

You may also want to look at this article as Uptomp doesn't always work.
Unfortunately just adding a 2nd processor isn't as easy as you would think
with NT4.
