pentium 4 hyperthreading issues

phoenixphylok · Oct 16, 2004, 04:25 PM

I have a laptop with a 3.0ghz HT P4, but the only way I can hit 100% processor utilization is with more than 1 program running. Even doom3 will only take up 50% of the processor. Is there a way to fix this or should I take the time to reinstall windows without hyperthreading?
thanks
