Core with ehlo in ims5.2p2

I have ims5.2p2 installed on Solaris9 .
From time to time, i get a core :
adb ...tcp_smtp_server core.tcp_smtp_server...
core file = core.tcp_smtp_server... -- program ``

I tried doing "ehlo ." on a SMTP session to this server. When i do this, the connection is closed and i get a core.
Does anyone had the same problem ?
Thanks in advance

It's certainly not something you should be seeing.
Can you do
pstack core
and paste the results? I can compare that with known cores, and see if you're hittig a known issue. 5.2p2 is pretty old, and many bugs have been fixed since.

I have 12 core with Quatro 4000 and 5770, I want to use dual monitor setup, monitors are NEC with Spectraview-II. How do I connect? 4000 only has 1 Display Port and 1 DVI. 5770 has 2 of each, if I use both 5770 Display Ports, does the 4000 contribute?

I just bought a 12 core with Quatro 4000 and 5770, I want to use dual monitor setup, monitors are NEC with Spectraview-II. How do I connect? 4000 only has 1 Display Port and 1 DVI. 5770 has 2 of each, if I use both 5770 Display Ports, does the 4000 contribute any work at all? I read where on a PC they would work together, but on a MAC they do not.
I read that Display Port has higher band width than DVI, NEC monitors for best performance they recommend using DIsplay Port.
When I was setting this up I looked at a Nvidia Quadro 4000, unfortunately it was for PC, it had 2 Display Ports, in the Mac version they reduce it to one. I did not think there could be a difference.
Mainly want to use it for CS6 and LR4.
How to proceed???
I do not want to use the Quadro 4000 for both, that would not optimize both monitors, one DP and 1 DVI. Using just the 5770 would work but I do not think the 4000 would be doing anything, and the 5770 has been replaced by the 5870.more bandwidth.
Any ideas, I am a Mac newbie, have not ever tried a Mac Pro, just bought off ebay and now I have these problems.
As a last resort I could sell both and get a 5870. That would work, I'm sure of that, it's just that I wanted the better graphics card.
Thanks,
Bill

The Hatter,
I am a novice at Mac so I read all I can. From what I understand the NEC monitors I bought require Display Port for their maximum performance. The GTX 680 only has DVI outputs. Difference from what I understand is larger bandwidth with the DP.
You said I have the 4000 for CUDA. I am not all that familiar with CUDA and when I do read about it I do not understand it.
A concern I have is, that if I connect the 2 high end NEC monitors via the 5770, using it's 2 Display Ports I would have nothing connected to the 4000. Is the 4000 doing anything with nothing connected? I read where in a PC system the 2 cards would interact but in a Mac system they do not.
Bottom line, as I see it, the 4000 will not be useful at all to me, since I want a dual monitor set-up.
So far the 5870 seems the best choice, higher band width than the 5770, and it has 2 Display Ports to optimize the NEC monitors.
I'm not sure how fine I am splitting hairs, nor do I know how important those hairs are. I am just trying to set up a really fast reliable system that will mainly be used for CS6 and LR4. Those NEC monitors are supposed to be top notch.

Running new 10.8.2 on my pro 2x3 Ghz Quad core with 32 GB DDR2. everything seem to slow and frezze up some time

I had fresh installed 10.8.2 on eight core with 32 GB of Ram. Everything seem to slow and frezze up sometime. but running OSX 10.6.8 is fine. Can anyone help
System Spec:
Mac OSX 10.8.2
Pro: 2x3 Ghz Quad-core Intel Xeon
Memory: 32 GB 667 MHz DDR2
Hard drive Raid 1-0: 500 GB

I am certainly confused. 10.8.2 is not supported on pre-2008's. There was an 8-core 2008 that has 800MHz DDR2 FBDIMMs (and can accept 667MHz as well).
A clean install is the safest and best way, you can migrate or let Setup Assistant import your settings.
Old PowerPC apps, drivers and plugins are a no-no, no Rosetta. Check Roaringapps.com
Put your system on an SSD.
Put your data on a non-array or if you must use a mirror only. Stripe is fine. Both should have 2-3 backups and extra redundancy instead of trying software based 1+0 with four drives.
Upgrade to new(er) drives. And format them with ML. Build or rebuild the arrays in ML.
Where is SL located compared to ML? same drive with different partition? or different disk drives?
10.8.5 is current and other than support for 3TB drives, you should not be using anything less than 10.8.3.

13'' dual-core with 16gb ram vs 15'' quad-core 8gb ram -- ram vs cores?

Hello. I am at a point between choosing a 13'' dual-core i5 with 16gb ram vs the 15'' quad-core with 8gb ram - both retinas.
I will be using photoshop and illustrator while uploading/downloading large files constantly. After much headscratching I almost decided on the 13'' i5 because from my experience, RAM limitations is where I usually run into problems, and don't see the extra price of i7 worth it when it is still a dual-core. For the same price I can get a 15'' quad, but will be stuck with 8gb ram.
I don't care about the screen size, I have good eyes and the weigth trade-off makes this a non-issue.
I'm thinking about down the road, as either of these I'm sure will be fine solutions. I'm just wondering where does the edge really come in this case? Ram or processor / cores?
Thanks.

Thanks for your reply tjk, of course with 16gb on the 15'' for $200 more I'd have easier time, but in this case I am comparing a refurbished - the lowest 15'' 16gb I could find would cost $500 more, I just can't do it.
I should make clear that this particular comparison between 13''w/16 and 15''w/8, they are the same price (the 13 being new) - which is why I'm stuck.
To rephrase - for the same price - which will I regret less in 4 years?
As a side note, I can't believe I'm even thinking about paying this much money for something that is not upgradeable, but that's another discussion entirely.

N7k as redundant core with vpc to 4510/3750 as distribution switch

Hi - basic question here
Got 2 qty N7k as redundant core with vpc to 4510 and 3750 as redundand distribution switch running MST. I got stuck with some bad cabling design from our IDF to Datacenter so have 2 access switch whereby each one will have a etherchannel to both distribution 4510 and 3750. My question is this is a doable design as I am not sure about the vpc upstream on how it effects etherchannel with MST for my distribution and access.
Thanks

vPC will be considered as one logical link by both upstream and downstream connected devices
the question here are you going to run L3 between the distribution and Core devices ? ( this is recommended design ) if yes, then you do not need to worry about MST and VPC if you going to have it L3 from distribution devices up to the Core
one thing to consider is the distribution switch in your design has big difference in terms of backplane throughput i mean between the 4500 and 3750 !
if you can have both as 4500 will be better and more consistent design
Good luck

Has anyone been able to successfully use more than 8 cores with Logic?

I've posted this before and was recommended to phrase the question like this, has anyone been able to successfully use more than 8 cores with Logic?
If so or if not please specify what version of logic you have, what computer since only the new Mac Pro's have 16 virtual cores, and any other information or reference saying how to or how its not possible. This seems to be a question many users need to find out before upgrading to a new mac. Thanks!

Support för Palomino core with OLD bios?

I have a question regarding MS-6380 compability
with the Palomino core with and old BIOS.
The problem is that my Tbird 1000MHz just burned up
and I haven't updated my BIOS at all, and now I in
pursuit of an new CPU. I dont remember what version it
is but I'm sure that its older than the 6380v15 that is
supposed to add support for "Palomin CPU support 1.5GHz -
1.7GHz".
So my questions are this,
will it work if I put in an AMD 1500+ or 1600+ cpu
(with the Palomoni core but no Higher clockspeed than
1400 Mhz)? Will it work long enough so I can update the
BIOS? Or will it not work at all?
In short will the Moderbord work at all with an Palomino
based CPU, even with a old BIOS (probably ver 1.0)?

Hi!
The XP1800+ will normally work at 1533 MHz, assuming a fsb of 133. If fsb is set to 100, the result will be 1533/1.33 = 1150MHz approximately.

"iMac 27" with quad core with an ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB video processor"

I'm about to order a new iMac 27" quad core with an ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB video processor.
I'm a long time PC gamer but decided i want to make the full switch to Mac and I have a few questions about the graphics capabilities of this computer.
I game in a clan that plays Battlefield 2 Project Reality.
Will this card handle this game at the high settings and native resolution of the monitor? I also play COD4 and have the same question for that game.
Thanks for your input. I'm sure this will be helpful for all of us and I will share it with my clan of over 100 people strong.

Yeah it plays crysis fine, here is a video of me playing it:

RAID test on 8-core with real world tasks gives 9% gain?

Here are my results from testing the software RAID set up on my new (July 2009) Mac Pro. As you will see, although my 8-core (Octo) tested twice as fast as my new (March 2009) MacBook 2.4 GHz, the software RAID set up only gave me a 9% increase at best.
Specs:
Mac Pro 2x 2.26 GHz Quad-core Intel Xeon, 8 GB 1066 MHz DDR3, 4x 1TB 7200 Apple Drives.
MacBook 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Both running OS X 10.5.7
Canon Vixia HG20 HD video camera shooting in 1440 x 1080 resolution at “XP+” AVCHD format, 16:9 (wonderful camera)
The tests. (These are close to my real world “work flow” jobs that I would have to wait on when using my G5.)
Test A: import 5:00 of video into iMovie at 960x540 with thumbnails
Test B: render and export with Sepia applied to MPEG-4 at 960x540 (a 140 MB file) in iMovie
Test C: in QuickTime resize this MPEG-4 file to iPod size .m4v at 640x360 resolution
Results:
Control: MacBook as shipped
Test A: 4:16 (four minutes, sixteen seconds)
Test B: 13:28
Test C: 4:21
Control: Mac Pro as shipped (no RAID)
Test A: 1:50
Test B: 7:14
Test C: 2:22
Mac Pro config 1
RAID 0 (no RAID on the boot drive, three 1TB drives striped)
Test A: 1:44
Test B: 7:02
Test C: 2:23
Mac Pro config 2
RAID 10 (drives 1 and 2 mirrored, drives 3 and 4 mirrored, then both mirrors striped)
Test A: 1:40
Test B: 7:09
Test C: 2:23
My question: Why am I not seeing an increase in speed on these tasks? Any ideas?
David
Notes:
I took this to the Apple store and they were expecting 30 to 50 per cent increase with the software RAID. They don’t know why I didn’t see it on my tests.
I am using iMovie and QuickTime because I just got the Adobe CS4 and ran out of cash. And it is fine for my live music videos. Soon I will get Final Cut Studio.
I set up the RAID with Disk Utility without trouble. (It crashed once but reopened and set up just fine.) If I check back it shows the RAID set up working.
Activity Monitor reported “disk activity” peaks at about 8 MB/sec on both QuickTime and iMovie tasks. The CPU number (percent?) on QT was 470 (5 cores involved?) and iMovie was 294 (3 cores involved?).
Console reported the same error for iMovie and QT:
7/27/09 11:05:35 AM iMovie[1715] Error loading /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/DVCPROHDAudio.plugin/Contents/MacOS/DVCPROHDAudio: dlopen(/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/HAL/DVCPROHDAudio.plugin/Contents/MacOS/DVCPROHD Audio, 262): Symbol not found: _keymgr_get_per_threaddata

The memory controllers, one for each cpu, means that you need at least 2 x 2GB on each bank. If that is how Apple set it up, that is minimal and the only thing I would do now with RAM is add another 2 x 2GB. That's all. And get you into triple channel bandwidth.
It could be the make and model of your hard drives. If they are seagate then more info would help. And not all drives are equal when it comes to RAID.
Are you new to RAID or something you've been doing? seems you had enough to build 0+1 and do some testing. Though not pleased, even if it works now, that it didn't take the one time.
Drives - and RAIDs - improve over the first week or two - which, before commiting good data to them - is the best time to torture, run them ragged, use Speedtools to break them in, loosen up the heads, scan for media errors, and run ZoneBench (and with 1TB, partition each drive into 1/4ths).
If Drive A is not identical to B, then they may deal with an array even worse. And no two drives are purly identical, some vary more than others, and some are best used in hardware RAID controller environments.
Memory: buying in groups of three. okay. But then adding 4 x 4GB? So bank A with 4 x 2GB and B with twice as much memory. On Mac Pro, 4 DIMMs on a bank you get 70% bandwidth, it drops down from tri-channel to dual-channel mode.
I studied how to build or put together a PC for over six months, but then learned more in the month (or two) after I bought all the parts, found what didn't work, learned my own short-comings, and ended up building TWO - one for testing, other for backup system. And three motherboards (the best 'rated' also had more trouble with BIOS and fans, the cheap one was great, the Intel board that reviewers didn't seem to "gork" actually has been the best and easiest to use and update BIOS). Hands on wins 3:1 versus trying to learn by reading for me, hands-on is what I need to learn. Or take car or sailboat out for drive, spin, see how it fares in rough weather.
I buy an Apple system bare bones, stock, or less, then do all the upgrades on my own, when I can afford to, gradually over months, year.
Each cpu needs to be fed. So they each need at least 3 x 1GB RAM. And they need raw data fed to RAM and cpu from disk drives. And your mix of programs will each behave differently. Which is why you see Barefeats test with Pro Apps, CINEBENCH, and other apps or tools.
What did you read or do in the past that led you to think you need RAID setup, and for how it would affect performance?

Mac Pro 2009 8 core with an endless cycle while booting up

Dear all,
My Mac Pro 2009 edition (2.26 GHz,8-cores) is suffering from a weird situation which I can't solve, so I post the message and hope someone can help me to find a solution.
On Monday Morning, I found the rainbow cycle is running behind the screen saver after shifting my mouse. The Mac Pro was not responding (can move mouse), so I pressed the button for 5 secs to shut it down. Then, I pressed the start button and saw there is a folder with question mark on the screen. After looking several web pages, I realized that it might be the RAID is failed for some reasons. I used the OS X installation disc to boot up and found that the RAID card was not recognizing the original RAID 0 build while the RAID card was shown to be healthy. I decided to restore my system from the time machine (WD Green 2TB x2, RAID0), so I checked the content of the time machine and hoped that I can find since when the machine is not responding. Then, it was 5:36PM on Friday, the last backup (backup per hour). So, it has been freezed for more than 2 days right after I left my office! Anyways, I used RAID utility to rebuild the RAID 0 (1TB x 4) and started recovering the last backup. After 11 hrs, the restore had been successfully done, so I clicked the restart button. However, after booting up, I got a grey apple and a running circle below it. The loading screen remained for 10 hrs and wouldn't get in.
I sensed that there is something wrong. It couldn't be fixed by simply restoration by time machine. Therefore, I started exhaustively surffing the internet and looking for an answer. Here are things I have tried but didn't work:
1. Restoring from three different time points: last time point, 1 hour before the last time point, and midnight on Thursday. Not working.
2. Remove Mac Pro RAID Card and use Disk Utility to build SoftRAID 0. Not working.
3. Remove ATI Raedon 5770 and replace with the original GT120. Not working.
4. Use Apple Hardware Test from Application installation disc to perform both default and extended tests. Found no problems.
5. Replace SDRAM with the originial 6GB (1GB x 6) SDRAM.
6. Tried reseting PRAM (3 to 4 times each)
7. Tried reseting logic board by following the instructions from macusersguide (http://www.macusersguide.com/2009/06/reseting-the-logicboard/).
(*)8. I tried to boot from another HardDisk, which I installed Win7 on it a few months ago (including all needed drivers for the Mac Pro). It is an originial Win 7 and it works! I also tried to test the 4 HDs by using the windows experience index. I tried 5 times (1 disks individually and all 4 disks enabled). All tests passed.
So far, I can only conclude that the hardware seemed fine, and it could be a software thing which blocks me from getting into the Mac OS.
I have been working on this for 3 days, and I am really tried. Could someone help me addressing this issue? Is there anything I can do to test which part is doing wrong? Should I test more time points in the time machine? Should I just hand my Mac Pro to Apple retail stores and asking for fixing (apple care expired and they would charge fees..)?
Thank you so much

Frankly, if you want a reliable backup from which you can boot the computer, then don't use TM. Use a backup utility that makes bootable backups starting with the Restore option of Disk Utility. Here are others:

Mac Pro 8 core with boot drive cloned from MacBook Pro

I bought a Mac Pro 8 core and in order to avoid having to reinstall all my stuff, I cloned my OSx (tiger 10.49) partition from my MacBook Pro running vista (installed via bootcamp) to my new MacPro's startup disk. The disk works fine except that the MacPro will not boot to osx unless I use the option key and choose the OSX partition. If i just turn the machine on it doesen't find anything. I think it is looking for windows. What do you think?????
Also, if i restart from the os x partition on my mac pro it stops just before the lound bong sound and seems to be looking for the dvd drive. Any ideas??

Well, I've covered this extensively here:
A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3 or G4 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
Screensavers written for the PowerPC
System Preference add-ons
All Unsanity Haxies
Browser and other plug-ins
Contextual Menu Items
Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5
Kernel extensions
Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior (does not work), TechTool Pro (pre-4.5.1 versions do not work), SuperDuper (newest release works), and Drive Genius (untested) may not work properly on Intel-Macs. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries.
Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.

Transferring data with Setup Assistant - Migration Assistant FAQ
Because Migration Assistant isn't the ideal way to migrate from PowerPC to Intel Macs, using Target Disk Mode or copying the critical contents to CD and DVD or an external hard drive will work better when moving from PowerPC to Intel Macs.
Basically the instructions you should follow are:
1. Backup your data first. This is vitally important in case you make a mistake or there's some other problem.
2. Connect a Firewire cable between your old Mac and your new Intel Mac.
3. Startup your old Mac in Target Disk Mode.
4. Startup your new Mac for the first time, go through the setup and registration screens, but do NOT migrate data over. Get to your desktop on the new Mac without migrating any new data over.
4. Copy the following items from your old Mac to the new Mac:
In your /Home/ folder: Documents, Movies, Music, Pictures, and Sites folders.
In your /Home/Library/ folder:
/Home/Library/Application Support/AddressBook (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Application Support/iCal (copy the whole folder)
Also in /Home/Library/Application Support (copy whatever else you need including folders for any third-party applications)
/Home/Library/Keychains (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Mail (copy the whole folder)
/Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist (* This is a very important file which contains all email account settings and general mail preferences.)
/Home/Library/Preferences/ copy any preferences needed for third-party applications
/Home /Library/iTunes (copy the whole folder)
/Home /Library/Safari (copy the whole folder)

Entourage is in /Home/Documents/Microsoft User Data
Also in /Home/Library/Preferences/Microsoft
Credit goes to another forum user for this information.
If you need to transfer data for other applications please ask the vendor or ask in the Discussions where specific applications store their data.
5. Once you have transferred what you need restart the new Mac and test to make sure the contents are there for each of the applications.
Written by Kappy with additional contributions from a brody.
Not knowing what you did when you migrated from your PB to the MBP, I can't really comment, but it's quite possible it didn't go as well as you think. Numerous users who migrated from PPC Macs to Intel Macs ended up with an Intel Mac that didn't work properly because Intel coded components had been replaced by PPC coded components.

Dual Core with 2 different processors in a Satellite A100-599!!??

Hello,
My Satellite A100-599 is a Core 2 Duo T7100 2.00 GHZ.
In Device Manager, under Processors, I have 2 processors:
Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 CPU T5500 @ 1.66GHZ
Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 CPU T7200 @ 2.00GHZ
Is this normal? Shouldn't I have two T7200 processers @ 2.00GHZ ?
Thank You.

Hi mate,
no, its impossible that a dual core CPU has two different cores. I think its rather a software bug which displays the model not correctly. To fix this there is some bugfix from microsoft which should be availble on the microsoft website.
You can also try to update your chipset drivers from the www.intel.com website.
But physically its impossible because the cores are on the same processor casing, so I dont think that intel would sell CPUs with different cores. :)

G5 Dual Core with ATI X1900GT - upgrade to FCS2, Tiger or Leopard?

Hi everyone,
I am little confused what to do. So, maybe somebody can advise me what it would be the best.
Here is the situation:
I am still using my G5 Dual Core 2.0 with an ATI X1900GT card, 8.5GB RAM and Decklink SP (as below states). I intend to use it till the end of this year, and then to switch to the fastest at that moment Mac Pro. Now, I have 10.4.11 and FCS-1 with almost all filters from Noise Industries. Everything works perfect.
But I would like to upgrade to FCS-2, especially because of Motion3 new features. The questions are:
1. Stay with Tiger and do the upgrade to FCS-2? And after that how the Motion3 will work? With similar speed? Or better, maybe worse? (I am not afraid about Final Cut - it shouldn't be any problem, but what about Motion?)
2. Upgrade the system to Leopard, and then upgrade the FCS?
But what about the graphic card drivers? On the Ati/AMD web site there are still (from over a year) drivers for Tiger and not for Leopard. Without the proper drivers it could be a problem to install the FCS. Few months ago, when I was changing the startup disk for WD Raptor, I did the clean system installation and tried to install FCS-1. But I forgotten about installing the ATI drivers. When I tried to install, the FCS shows the info that this computer doesn't have the graphic card which support Quartz Extreme. Of course, after installing those drivers everything works OK.
So, how it could be with Leopard?
3. Will the all filters (I mean filter from Noise Industries) work fine in Motion and in FCP?
4. Will the old Motion project open correct in Motion3? I use the old project quite often.
+For those upgrades I can use another (cloned) startup disk to avoid the "dramatic" situation.+
I appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.
Marek.

Thanks for all replies.
It looks that it is not a bad idea to stay with 10.4.11, and upgrade only the FCS.
I will do this on my clone disk, and check if everything works fine.
But, is it possible to install Motion3 (from FCS2 upgrade disks) and leave the Motion2 on the same disk being installed? (I suppose no, but asking just in case)
I checked the specification of the Noise Industries - filters work fine in both system Tiger and Leopard (most of them I am using now, except of those filter which need FCP6 and Motion3), so I think I will stay with Tiger.
Peter, do you know what capabilities exactly I can loose staying with Tiger? Do you use those filters (or some of them)?

Windows 7 Not Recognising 8 Cores With MacPro!!!

Hi,
I am running Windows 7 on my 8 core (x2 quad) MacPro and only just realised after running the task manager that its only recognising and running on 4 cores instead of 8 cores??
Also, its running Windows 7 home premium pretty crap also, quite slugish with certain apps like firefox and slow opening video HD files
Any ideas?
Cheers

If you upgraded over Vista, the results can be "mixed"
I run Windows 7 Professional on 2006 Mac Pro (dual dual-core 2.0GHz 4GB RAM) as well as a couple of custom i7 builds, and they all run equally fine (and better than 10.6.3 does on Mac Pro).
The sluggishness is highly unlikely from using just one processor (2008 2.8?) as most people running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit do, usually Core i7 920 Bloomfield).
HP only supports one physical processor/socket, so you need to use Windows Anytime Upgrade for Pro to use dual processor.
Maybe you haven't updated your graphic card; the drive you are using to hold Windows (ideally its own hard drive). Some people put Windows 7 on an SSD in their Mac Pro.
Be sure to get Adobe Flash 10.1 RC4.
