Windows XP Single to MultiProcessor patch

To switch to Multiprocessor support need to modify some system files.
There are three files involved in this in your \Windows\system32 directory:
  • HAL.DLL
  • ntoskrnl.exe
  • ntkrnlpa.exe
The versions you need may be found in \Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386:
  • halmacpi.dll
  • ntkrnlmp.exe
  • ntkrpamp.exe
