i have a machine with this amd cpu running win server 2003 32bit os with vmware server 2.0.2. this machine has run fine for quite awhile.
i have installed a few guests, one fedora 32 bit and two fedora 16 64bit. each guest has 1gb mem allotted.
the fedora 32bit guest is now terribly slow after installing the fedora 64bit os's.
question1) this amd cpu is compatible with 64bit guest os's , yes?
question2) i have "NB & CPU HT time margining" (enabled) in BIOS, this OK?
tia
