Hi Deepak,

Maybe you can provide more information, such as what kind of hard disks
you are using (SCSI/SATA/PATA/IDE), whether you are running RAID and
what kind? (software/hardware RAID, what kind of RAID card if any)

Also the post you pointed to in the link says you are using a Celeron
chip. Unless I am really behind the times, I'd think there are no
Celeron chips that can do Hyperthreading.
