Owners of powerful computer based systemsmulti-core processors, of course, try to “squeeze” out of them everything possible in terms of increasing the performance of machines running, for example, running Windows 7 or similar. But not everyone knows how to turn on the kernels on the “computer”. Windows 7, as well as newer systems, offers a universal solution, which will be discussed below.
Many users about engagingthe system of all processor cores have a rather distorted view. Remember, you can turn on two or four cores, but this is not the same thing as using two or four processors! The performance gain will not be as expected.
Transfer or read data will bemade faster, but the amount of information processed will remain the same. To understand why and how to enable all kernels on Windows 7 (and, in general, whether to do it), let's draw a kind of analogy with eating. It goes without saying that you can put food in your mouth with one hand, or you can with two. In this case, the hands are the processor cores. It is clear that when using both hands, the process will go much faster. But the trouble is: when the mouth is full, no hands, whether they are at least four, at least six, will not help. Food will simply have nowhere to put.
Exactly the same thing is happening with computationalmulti-core processor capabilities. Here, only the optimization of the number of operations performed during a certain period of time by each core occurs, but the total volume remains the same, and above this indicator, as they say, you cannot jump.
So, to begin with, let's consider the most unfavorable situation, when for some reason changes were made to the BIOS, parameters were reset, or the system simply “flew off”.
In this case, deciding how to include allkernel on Windows 7, you need to build on specific settings. To do this, use the section called "Advanced Clock Calibration", where the default value should be set to "Auto" or "All Cores" (in different BIOS versions, the partition names may be different or be in tabs with different parameters).
After applying the changed settings, you will only need to restart the system. In theory, if there are no failures in the BIOS itself, all the processor cores will be automatically involved.
However, even if the BIOS settings are configured correctly, and the processor cores are still not involved, you can use your own means of the "OS" itself.
How to enable all kernels on windows 7 in thissituations? Here you need to call the menu "Run" and register there the command "msconfig" to enter the configuration settings. Here is the “Download” tab we need. Just below the main window is a button for advanced options. Clicking on it, we get into the setup menu.
Слева используем строку количества процессоров и choose the number corresponding to the number of cores (drop-down list). You can not worry, more than they actually are, the system will not display. For example, we need to solve the problem of how to enable 4 cores on Windows 7. As is already clear, we select this number from the list. After the changes are made, we save the configuration and restart the computer.
But there are some pitfalls.With such operations you need to be very careful. It is important to know that when using each core must have at least 1 GB (1024 MB) of RAM. If the indicator of the slats of the "RAM" does not correspond to the required values, there is nothing to try. So you can get only the opposite effect. In this case we are talking about hand-made stationary computers. Laptops (if the equipment has not changed) are not threatened, since any manufacturer takes into account the possibility of using all the cores of the processor system. Please note, because for 2-core processors, as a rule, there is at least 2 GB of RAM, for 4-core processors - at least 4 GB, etc.
The debugging and blocking points of PCI must be disabled without fail.
So we figured out how to turn on all the kernelsWindows 7 processor. In general, as already understood, this process in Windows 7 and above does not cause any particular difficulties. Another thing is that you need to analyze in advance the configuration of the system for compliance with the number of cores and memory rails, because as a result, you may experience a complete slowdown of the computer or, in general, its failure. So with such settings it is better not to joke, if there is no firm confidence that the inclusion of absolutely all cores is an absolute necessity.
However, there should be no problems with the BIOS.Most systems, when resetting values to the default settings, imply maximum use of the capabilities of modern multi-core processors. Such a solution was given, as it were, in an extreme case.
