[MCE 2005 really doesn't support HT?]

well, in my case it says: ACPI Multiprocessor PC(when Using winXP Pro SP2)

both computers have the same motherboard (Gigabyte 8iKNXP), i never had this probelm before on any OS except for WinXP MCE 2005! and that was my question.

Anyway, thank you very much about your instructions, and I'll try & tell you the results

[MCE 2005 really doesn't support HT?]

I've recently installed Windows XP MCE 2005, when i realized a huge decrease in my system performance. I've started investigating and found that the performance tab on the windows Task Manager shows only one CPU, though it's supposed to show two as I have a HT CPU!

Also when I opened the device manager, I looked for "Processors" item that's supposed to show that I have two processors, well, I didn't even find "Processors"!

I've tried the OS on another machine, and it game me the same results.

Does anyone had the same problem?

[SAV9 Error driving me crazy!]

I slipstreamed the MSP update into the main MSI. It installed and ran fine.

Do you know what's the name of the Auto-Protect Service?

as I said before, I think that it's a service problem..

[SAV9 Error driving me crazy!]

By the way, while I'm installing the program, or the update, the error message appears when the program reaches the "STARTING SERVICES" part of the setup.

I think that there's something preventing the Auto-Protect service from starting. But I don't know which service could that be! I've checked each installed symantec service and make sure that they are all set to: Automatic.

[SAV9 Error driving me crazy!]

Have you tried re-installing SAV9 completely after the SP2 installation?

and yes Mazin, I've installed the update.

sure, that's the first thing that I've tried, but it didn't work.

[SAV9 Error driving me crazy!]

I have used Symantec Antivirus 9 Enterprise edition for a while now, but after I've installed WinXP SP2, an error message appears, saying:

Symantec Antivirus Auto-Protect Failed to Load

and everytime I try to enable the Auto Protection or restart windows, it gives me the same error message!

I've tried uninstalling windows, and it works fine with SP1, but the same thing happens when I installed SP2!

I've searched Symantec website for an error like that, but I didn't find any!

I've installed the most recent updates of the program, but things remain the same.

any ideas, please?

[XP CD Cover]

I always use Easy CD Creator for my CD covers. It's very good

[XP CD Cover]

I know this is more of a 'Customize XP' kind of topic, but i figured that there is no better way to finish off your Unattended XP CD, than with a spiffy CD Cover to match.

Just download this picture, add your cdkey to the yellow space, and print!

Feel free to download and change this image as you see fit. I just ask that you post your covers, so i can see what i have inspired!

Note: To download, click on the thumbnail to see a larger picture, then download that one I know it looks big, but the dimentions are right for A4 paper.

the link to the image is dead
