There was indeed a BIOS setting along the lines of APIC 'Full Table' which was not the default. HTT was disabled which is why there are 2 not 4 CPUs Unfortunately the ISP's engineer also flashed the BIOS to the latest release at the same time so that may also have had an effect. Thanks for the help. greg.
