Hi All,

Scientific Linux 6.1 x64
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.160.el6_1.2.x86_64

My XP-Pro guest will only let me use two CPUs.

Is there a way I can tell Virt-Manager to use
one CPU with four cores instead of four separate
CPUs?

Many thanks,
-T

Don't know about how to do it with virt-manager (I believe they have their own mailing list), but for standard qemu/kvm you can use "-smp 4,cores=4"
