Hello,

I have a asus p4p800-se board running a 2.4 P4 @ 533 on the FSB.
I am going to install a 3.2 P4 Prescott in a day or two, coming in the mail.
Will I have any problems related to turning on the Hyper-Threading. Is there
any special
way to do this? Should I do clean install of the OS?

TIA

All you need to do is to make sure Hyper-Threading is enabled in the BIOS
(which it should be by default). A clean install of the OS is not
necessary.
