Is there any diagnostic or hardware specs program I can run that will verify that both processors are working and being recognized. Is there any setup I need to do in XP to make sure that it is utilizing both processors?
First thing to do is verify that in fact you do have two processors. If so, verify if Windows is seeing them already. The easiest way is to open task manager and see if there are one or two charts for the processor. If two, your done. If one, then there is hope
Right click on "My Computer" and choose "manage" then select "Device Manager".
In the right half of the window, expand the "computer" branch. It should say something like "APIC uniprocessor PC", the goal will be to get it to say something about "multiprocessor".
Right click on "APIC uniprocessor PC" and choose "update drive". Follow the prompts in the wizard and choose the driver for Multiprocessor. Finish out of the wizard and you should be done. A reboot may be in order. Understand that a multiprocessor system will have very little advantage over a uniprocessor unless you use multi threaded applications, if you do, then there is a huge performance advantage.
Let us know how it turns out.
