Tech Link (Operating System): Microsoft Dual Core HotFix

I just got a tip that there's a dual core hotfix from Microsoft*. I personally haven't tested it, but you may want to give it a try. According to Microsoft*, without the hotfix, there will be degradation of performance.

SYMPTOMS
Computers that are equipped with multiple processors that support processor power management features, such as Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) processor performance states, require Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2). Additional updates are available to optimize performance and behavior on computers that are running Windows XP SP2. Without these updates, computers that are equipped with these power management-capable, mobile, dual-core processors may experience decreased performance or unexpected behavior
