completely (this process may take several seconds). If the computer is hung and the power button fails to function properly, unplug the AC power cable from
the computer, wait for the computer to completely stop running, and plug in the AC power cable. If the computer does not restart, press the power button to
restart the computer.
Hyper-Threading
Hyper-Threading is an Intel®technology that can enhance overall computer performance by allowing one physical microprocessor to function as two logical
microprocessors, capable of performing certain tasks simultaneously. It is recommended that you use the Microsoft®Windows®XP SP1 or later operating
system because Windows XP is optimized to take advantage of Hyper-Threading technology. While many programs can benefit from Hyper-Threading, some
programs have not been optimized for Hyper-Threading and may require an update from the software manufacturer. Contact the software manufacturer for
updates and information about using Hyper-Threading with your software.
