Symmetric Multi Processing
Not too sure which drivers you are refering to. Win2K supports SMP natively. It should detect the Dual Processors when you install the OS. |

Yes, and the programs that are able (written) to take advantage of the SMP should also know what to do when they see the processors... without any intervention from you.
