Re: SBS2K3 Prem. not seeing all CPUs

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Is there a registry change that can be done to allow SBS2K3 to utilize three
physical procs?

I think I know why. Does SBS2K3 Prem. only allow two physical procssors?

I have a four-way Tyan K8QSD Pro S4882-D server board. I just installed a
third Opteron 880 dual core proc tonight. Upon bootup, I can see that the
system sees all six processors (three dual core procs). When SBS2K3 Prem.
comes up, I go into Device Manager and under Processors, I see six listed.

However, when I go into look at System Properties, it's only listing
2.4MB of memory when I know have 6MB (2MB per physical proc).
Additionally, when I go into Task Manager - Performance, it is only
showing performance on four processors.

I rebooted the server and went into the BIOS, but I don't see an option
that is limiting Windows from seeing all six processors. What I find
strange is that upon bookup, the BIOS shows six processors and then in
the Device Manager, it shows six processors under the Processor header.

Is there something in SBS2K3 Prem. I have to do in order to get the new
proc to be fully recognized/utilized? When I installed the second dual
core Opteron 880 at the beginning of January this year, it recognized and
utilized right away.
