rvanmanen9123,
In order to support dual CPU's, you need a pro or enterprise version of Windows 8. The home version of Windows will only support a single CPU. Hope that helps. |

Hi rvanmanen9123,
----------------------------------------in your specific case, since you seem to use the blade centre for crunching purpose only, I can only repeat my previous recommendation: you should consider to operate the blade centre with Linux (e.g. Ubuntu 14.04 LTS). The system will be more efficient and you will not have to suffer some of the typical Windows limitations. Enjoy, Yves |

Yep, right now I am using several different OS's to see which ones seem to operate the best. Mint17 and Lubuntu seem to be the frontrunners, I'm just about ready to ditch Windows and set all 5 to the same OS.
