Windows 2000 SP4 shows no more than 1 CPU in the Task Manager

Hi all...

My environment:

ESX 3.5 Update 3

VM: Windows 2000 SP4, 2 GB of RAM, 2 Vcpu

Problem: The Task Manager does not appear 2 CPU.

This virtual machine has been migrated from a VMware Server 2.0 VMware Converter standalone 4.0.1 and if I add 1 to 2 Vcpu and 4 Vcpu, Manager still shows only a single CPU tasks.

VC on, selecting the machine, performance TAB, I can see CPU 0 and CPU 1, but CPU shows minimal use.

I have attached the 1 document with 2 images, the Task Manager and the other Virtual Center.

Go to the Device Manager to the computer object.  If the layer Uniprocessor HAL, you need to change to Multi.  Google, a lot of info out there.

  • Windows Vista is running extremely slow and will not open the Task Manager or connect to the internet

    I have an older Dell running Windows Vista, and it started fine when I got it, but about a month ago it started very slow and refusing to open any program. I can't get the Task Manager to open to all and internet Explorer refuses to connect. I did a complete analysis of the system through Viper and it came out saying: there is nothing more than a few trogans. He also started a taskbar at the top of the screen. No idea how it happened either.

  • Slow Server 2008 performance when you use more than 1 CPU - bug?

    Hello

    It seems that when I run Server 2008 on one of my boxes 3 10.5.7 if I use more than 1 CPU in the settings, the ankles of machine the CPU while booting and then during the use of the operating system.  Normally, I have to run all 3 of them at the same time... and if I get all 3 virtual machines running, the CPU remains just pegged and slows down the machine.

    Then, if I close everything and change the settings to 1 CPU, virtual machines work fine, the CPU barely sees any activity and 75% of the 8 GB is used and it can run for weeks at a time without any problem.

  • WUSB54GC - WLAN monitor does not not on Windows 2000 SP4 computer laptop

    I have a WUSB54GC v3 and I tried to install the drivers and the WIFI monitor on a Gateway Solo 5300 laptop running Windows 2000 SP4.  When I put the disc, the installation automatically started, but stopped after a few seconds with a pop message saying, "this version of windows is not supported" (or something similar to that).  I read in this forum and learned how to manually install the driver from the disk I did.  I checked the device using troubleshooting in Device Manager and shows the driver to be installed correctly and the device works correctly.

    My big problem is that the monitor WLAN (the little green square in the bottom right of the screen) will not illuminate.  There are no available wireless networks and the monitor does not respond to the "Refresh" or anything else.  It seems to be "dead".  How can I get the monitor to work?

    Thank you!

    Mike

    WUSB54GC is not compatible with Window2000... So either you can upgrade your operating system to Windows XP, or you can go for different cards as WUSB54G.

  • No E-mail shows for more than a year

    I did receive email watch for more than a year, although the watches are created and saved. When I go to www.oracle.com and click on the account, I see that my full email address is here. Forums, when I click on Control Panel, I see that the e-mail address is truncated and are missing @hotmail.com. I wonder if this has something to do with it, but I don't see a way to fix it. Everything that I click on a email truncated grayed or already complete email so there is nothing to fix. Can it be fixed somehow without losing anything else?

    Yes that is the question

    The question is, how do I log into the forums? With your full email or just part of it? Your username in the forums is non-email the basis, therefore, shows none of the emails.

    And Billy, you can change the preferences look in the control panel. If you wish, I can delete your watches if necessary

    Borrowing another post by ElderL (the same "JoseIbarra' that Elizabeth23 already mentioned):
    Provide information on your system, the better you can:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    What is your Internet browser and version?

    Do you have the Windows Desktop Search installed issue?

    Your system's disks IDE or SATA drives?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a genuine XP installation CD bootable, which is the same Service as your installed Service Pack (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    What do you see (exactly) that you don't think you should see, and when you see it?

    What do not you think that you should see?

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  • 2 questions: backups of disk XP and EULA talk about more than 1 CPU.

    2 questions: The Windows XP Home EULA says that I can not use the program on more than one CPU. Does this mean that I am breaking the agreement by running on a dual-core CPU? Second question, it is good to re - install Windows XP from a backup copy, when I lost the original disk but still have a valid product code?

    First question: a dual-core CPU has two processing cores, packaged in a single module.  It counts as a single processor for Windows XP license.

    Second question: Yes.

  • My CPU usage is at 100%, but the task manager says that nothing is more than using 01%

    Last night, I installed the updates for Windows 7 during the stop, as I normally do. He said there are four updates, and one went by pretty quickly. It seemed to get stuck on the second (even though he probably didn't want to - the blue ORB turned and the dots are moving, so I guess it's to large or slow) for a few minutes, three update took slightly less time and at the time he obtained for the release of four, I was paying attention just because I was so tired.

    In any case, I went to start my laptop (Toshiba Satellite) and on black splash screen "starting windows" with the flag/banner, he said that he needed install/configure 360 some odd updates. I had seen this before, although I do not remember how recently, so I thought nothing of it. I still don't know if it meant something significant.

    Now the problem is that my CPU usage is constantly at 100%, yet when I finally managed to open the Task Manager, NONE of the listed processes use anything more than 1%, and those who fluctuate. I can easily boot into safe mode, and from there, I have disabled the start of the process, such as taskbar support and itunes things google related, but I still boot normally to 100%.

    Any ideas? It would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm going to College next year and I really don't want to worry about finding how to get a new machine.

    Thank you!

    Hi Renae92,

    1. You have security software installed on the computer?
    2. High CPU usage occurs after the boot process?

    Method 1

    As the problem does not persist in safe mode, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Reset the computer to start as usual

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

    (b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

    (d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails, then I suggest you run the troubleshooter of performance and check if it helps.

  • I have to remove the duplicate files, but having problems by selecting more than one file in the player at the time.

    I have to remove the duplicate files, but having problems by selecting more than one file in the player at the time. How can I select multiple files at the same time so I can just delete them. I used to be able to do this in previous versions of Media Player, but this function seems now blocked or unavailable. The problem is this: through previous use of media player, it plays all my multimedia files several times whenever a device support has been added. He would try to save the files on my main drive, but since there is not enough room this would save the files somewhere else. This happened several times, I suppose, because when I upgraded my computer and a media scan was conducted he found duplicates of all my media various times of at least 6-8. I've consolidated since my plates on 3-disc multi to, but have now records duplicated hundreds and thousands of duplicate media files. Previous versions of Media Player would allow me to select all files and then delete them both of the reader, but also from my hard drive. So now I'm stuck with more than 300 GB of duplicate media I have to search line by line through all my hard drives to find each duplicate both, unless I can get media player to do what it can. Any help in this area would be appreciated.

    Hello

    1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    2. is Windows media player files in double creation during playback of music files?

    To delete duplicate entries, click on another feature tab in the drive (for example the current playback), and then click library.

    If this does not remove duplicates from your library, you can use the Add to library dialog box to search computer to analyze a file on your computer the duplicate entries not valid-pointing. The player will remove invalid entries in your library that point to files that no longer exist in the folder.

    Complete the steps above for files that are stored in the hard disks.

    Method 1: Use the add to Library dialog box search for computers

    (a) start Windows Media Player.

    (b) press F3 on your keyboard to open Add to the library of the find computers dialog box.

    (c) click the Browse button to locate the folder on your computer so that your library contains invalid entries. Specify the location of the folder in the box look in.

    If you are not sure what duplicate in your library entry is not valid, you can add a path column to display in your library. Specify the folder on your computer that corresponds to the path not valid file displayed in your library.

    (d) click on the Search button.

    The player will search for digital media files and playlists in the folder that you specify and remove invalid entries in your library that point to files that no longer exist in the folder. If not valid in double entries point to other folders on your computer, repeat this procedure, specify a different folder every time.

    If only a small number of duplicate entries exist, you can delete those invalid manually by right-clicking on the invalid entry, and then clicking Delete .

    For large double-number of entries in your library (or if all your library is duplicated), it might be better to create a new library and delete the files.

    Method 2:

    After you remove the duplicate entries, run the troubleshooting of Windows Media Library settings to solve this problem.

    Open the troubleshooter in Windows Media Library

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-Windows-Media-Player-library-Troubleshooter

    Let us know the results.

    I hope this helps.

  • Configuration of 10g to use more than 1 CPU

    Hello experts,

    I have server Oracle 10.2.0.4 Enterprise Edition running on a Windows Server 2003 - Enterprise 64-bit.

    * The server has 4 Xeon processors *.

    We have a performance tool that we alert to an enrichment of the CPU.

    It seems that Oracle uses only a SINGLE processor.

    Is this normal in a 4-processor server?

    Can I make a configuration change to allow Oracle to use more than 1 CPU a CPU?

    Thank you very much. John

    You have several active sessions simultaneously (i.e. normal operation OLTP) relatively fast SQL statements running? Or if you use with a handful of active sessions that each runs relatively long SQL statements (i.e. normal DSS / operations data warehouse)?

    Unless you explicitly prevented Oracle to use several processors, it will use Fortunately each processor on the server. But if you have only one session active at a time and that the session is not running of the parallel operations, you would only end up using one of the available processors.
