I have done this mod to over 250 XP's and have never encountered one that didn't work properly and get exactly the same scores in benchmarks as real MPs. If there is a problem with them running correctly is is not in the processor being labeled as XP it is in the user doing somthing else wrong, like using a single processor and then switching to 2 later on, in windows XP it doesn't always work right, unless you reinstall windows, or something else that they are doing wrong, or AMD's horrible buggy 760mpx chipset. Hell, I mod xp1700 tbred b's to run as mp2400s all the time and they run great, and for the price even if you are not good at what you are doing you can afford to ruin two of them in the process and you have still saved money. To buy actual MPs is just stupid or lazy.
