Trying to install vmware 5.1 esxi on a "server" with an ASUS P5Q mobo and an Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 CPU. But the installer failes and claims my CPU only has one core, and two is the minimum.
This CPU is a quad core (no HT) and thus has four and not one core. I've already made sure virtualization is on in bios and I've check if a newer bios is available (it's not).
The same server has been running vmware workstation happily and Windows has no issues detecting all cores.
Any ideas (other than buying a new mobo and cpu)?err
