Hi,
I just recently built a new gaming computer and I am using an Intel Q6600 Quad core processor. I also am using Windows XP Home Edition (32).
My question is, are there any 'hotfixes' that I may need to get the most out of my system when using the quad core cpu, or will just keeping the operating system (XP32) updated thru Windows Update take care of that? I am asking because I previously had a system with a Pentium 4 processor with Hyperthreading and there were 'hotfixes' for multicore/HT CPUs that were not part of Windows Update.
I just want to get the most out of my system and any help or input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!!
There is a thread here you can look at.
"Windows XP Multi Core config - Does your OEM do it for you?"

The thread is relatively long, and sometimes, starting at the
last page (page 60 right now) and working back, you can find
the latest developments with respect to the advice given
on the first page.
