your boot.ini file rather than disabling hyperthreading.
The boot.ini file lives at c:\boot.ini. You may have to enable "show hidden
files and folder" and/or turn off "hide protected operating system files"
to see it by going to "tools - folderoptions - view" and making the changes.
Here's the contents of my boot.ini for reference:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional"
/fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn /INTAFFINITY
C:\ = "Microsoft Windows"
Good luck!

>Hi folks,
While residing in the US, I had been using UPC1250 with no problems. I don't
use the thing anymore since I've switched to 240 volts. If anyone is interested
in trading the Power Conditioner/Stabilizer for the V.3.0 authorisation (Mac),
please let me know, cheers..Rob,
I have never had a signed contract while working on an hourly basis, which
is 98% of the time. But at one time I used to charge clients for backing up
data before it was cheap and easy to do. I had them sign a form to
acknowledge that it was their responsibility to do so. But in recent years,
I have come to routinely back up sessions for free without the clients even
being aware. However, I still see this as the greatest liabilty that we
have as studio operators. Where clients used to take their tapes home with
them, now they seem content to let their work live on our hard drives,
trusting that it will always be there.
We always assume everything is ok until something goes wrong. It would be
good to have clients sign a form to acknowlege that they are ultimately
responsible for backing up data and we can not be held liable in the event
of catastrophy.

As for myself, I am planning on renting my space to a reputable
band/producer from this area. They will be using the studio and some
equipment for a set period of time and I just wanted to get some sort of
written agreement stating the expectations of both parties. It's my first
time down this road, I usually only do hourly rates and no one else touches
my toys...!!
