VM Fusion Virtual Processors

[dr01dy]

Hello,

I dont kow if I am doing something wrong but when I am in Windows XP 32bit it only shows 2 cores instead of 4.

am I missing something ?

Edit: I have a 2.66 Mac Pro

No your not missing somthing. 🙂

You can tell Fusion how many processor cores to use in the advance preferences of the virtual machine. You can choose 1 core or more 🙂 It simply sounds like your prefs are set to 2 cores.

I can't seem to find that in the preferences.

Doesn't the preferences panel basically answer your question? VMWare supports only one or two virtual processors, not four.

If you use Boot Camp to run Windows, you can access all of the cores.

Just so you know XP home only supports 2 cores. But pro supports 4 I see you have pro so it won't be a problem for you.
