Feurio Questions & Answers - General questions on Feurio:
Does Feurio! work on Multi-Processor-Systems?


Question: I have got a dual-processor system (or a system with several processors). I have noticed that some programs have problems with Multi-Processor-Systems. What about Feurio? Does Feurio! work correctly on a system with several processors?

Answer: Our development computers are mainly dual processor systems - Feurio! has therefore mainly been developed and tested on dual processor computers - so Feurio! works without problem on multi processor systems!
(Note: To use several processors, the operating system used of course has to support several processors - this is currently only the case with Windows NT and Windows 2000. Windows 95, 98 and Millenium do NOT support multi processor systems!)

Comment: Unfortunately there are also IDE- / SCSI drivers which are not "multiprocessor capable". Feurio! can of course only work correctly if the system drivers are working correctly.

Question: Feurio! occasionally crashes. Is it possible that this is because Feurio! is not "multiprocessor-capable"?

Answer: No. As explained above, Feurio! has mainly been developed (and tested) on dual processor systems. The special requirements when synchronizing objects on multi processor systems was also taken into consideration right from the start. So it really can't be due to Feurio! - it is more probable that the driver used is not "multiprocessor-capable".
