i have it on and wondered anyone else's experiences? has it affected regular system performance. I wanted to setup win7 in vmware but it complained about this not being turned on. i did (you must power off system for it to take effect) and was wondering how you find performance after it. I tried to copy a cd after that and it copied the cd to the drive but said it did not have resources to burn the disk and am not sure if this is related. don't think i remember copying a cd before the change.

AFAIK it doesn´t affect regular system performance. I have it turned on all the time and I see no difference whatsoever. It can affect only VM performance, but I always set both cores for the VM, so it doesn´t really matter to me. I don´t believe either that Intel VT was the reason for your problem with the CD, maybe bad device configuration, not enough disk space... Note, as of yet Win 7 is not officially supported for VMware (but in fact runs very smooth
).

NO problems, or performance degradation...
