Thanks so much for all the help


OK, I downloaded this -

(Figured it might something along these lines - I guess Abit
made a few different versions of Nforce4 motherboard.)

The board does have an "MPS version" option, which is either
set to 1.1 or 1.4. If it was set to 1.1, then using 1.4
might make sense.

"Dan Isaacs reported that when you set the MPS version
to 1.4 in the ABIT BP6, Windows 2000 will not use the
second processor. So, if you encounter this problem,
set the MPS Version Control For OS to 1.1."

I doubt the problem is going to be something as easy as
flipping that setting, but it's worth a try.
