I had a very similar chip (3.2Ghz only diff) in a laptop. After trying |
| 17 |
for a long while, I finally figured out that even though the 531 is |
| 18 |
stated to support HT, that that particular laptop didn't. There was no |
| 19 |
way I could enable it. (Didn't work with any OS, windows, livecd or |
| 20 |
whatever). It just wasn't there for me. |

tweeking kernel options. |
