DL380 G3 Dual Xeon 2.2's and Windows 2000 Server

Howdy all,
I just recently setup and installed Windows 2000 Server onto this box. It's working fine but there is one oddity. If I am looking at the system summary under System Information in computer management it shows that I have 4 processors at 37411mhz each instead of 2 at 2200mhz each. Like I said, it's working fine but I'm just courious as to why it's doing this. Hyper Threading perhaps? Thanks for any input!

Yes, you are experiencing the wonderfull "feature" of hypethreading the Xeon MP processor. This is normal!

Take a look at this article for a more in depth look at this:

Take care.
Enjoy!
