I remember that I needed to go into the BIOS setup and disable HT before I could play System Shock 2 without crashing.

Well, I can't comment on games, but when P4's w/hyper threading came out and I moved to that from an athlon (and then later, even an athlon 64), multitasking in windows is improved GREATLY. I mean, I was able to do so many things at once where as on an AMD, it would eventually choke...Hyperthreading was great for it's time, but I thank god for my Conroe Dual Core Goodness
