What versions of Windows support HyperThreading?

Windows XP and Windows Vista, Intel's Hyperthreading did not exist before these Operating Systems. Now I may be wrong here, but I am confident that hyperthreading is a technology built into the processor itself, and any operating system should be able to utilize it. You are right to the extent that Hyper Threading is built into the processor itself, but a chipset and OS which supports hyper threading are also required. Here is the link which gives the list of OS which supports Hyperthreading http://www.intel.com/support/processors/sb/CS-017343.htm Windows XP supports HT Technology ,but widows and windows 9x/me does not


What technology allows each logical processor within the processor package to handle an individual thread in parallel with other threads being handled by other processors within the package?

Intel has HyperThreading, and AMD uses HyperTransport, so the logical processor can run threads in parallel with other processors in the chipset. (see A+ 220-701).

How hyperthreading processor is different from other traditional processors?

A traditional processor normally isn't 100% active. There are some parts of the processor that specialise in different processes, and they can only process one thread (or task) at a time, so when it is doing one process, other parts of the processor used for other things remain idle. A hyperthreading processor is seen in operating systems as 2 CPUs so it is given 2 threads (or tasks if you like) at once. The processor then processes one thread, and uses inactive parts of the processor to process the other thread.


When was Processor Technology created?

What is the new technology used in Pentium 4 processor?

A few new sockets came out with Pentium 4. I know 423, 478, and 775 were used during this time. It was based on the Netburst architecture, which was new with this version of Pentium. Northwood was one of the new revisions of pentium 4, that's new too. The most gaping new technology was HTT. Hyperthreading Technology, which actually did not premier with the Pentium 4, but was developed late in the life of P4, and applied for the first time here.
