    Question How many processors does Windows XP support?

    I remember reading somewhere that Windows XP ONLY supports two physical cores. Is that true? Does anyone have a definitive answer? What about XP 64? Does anyone know where I can find this information on the Microsoft website?

    What I'm getting at is this: if you had a Dual-CPU Dual-Core Opteron rig, would you be able to run Windows XP Professional? If not, what version of Windows WOULD you be able to run?
