Intel i7 - How to tell if hyperthreading is on or off?

[Odie]

Is there a way to tell if HT is on/off other than going into the bios? Just curious to see if it's on or not.

Its in the bios...You will just need to hunt it.....

Thanks, harleyman ! Didn't know if there was a built-in monitor or system register that you could look at to see.

I was reading through the HT FSX discussion and it got me to thinking, is mine on or off?

Check the windows task manager performance tab (Ctrl+Alt+Del).........there should be 8 cpu cores showing

lol what are they going to do when the octo-core processor comes out? Make another row of graphs? Or have it 16 across? :d
