    I changed number of cores in Msconfig and now my pc won't boot


    Hi Team, I changed the number of cores on my cpu in my Msconfig after a stupid suggestion and now my pc will not start. It says automatic repair can't repair your pc and the only option I have is to go to advanced options. Can someone please help me with this, I presume it would be fixed through command prompt but I am not sure which commands to do! I have tried resetting, that will not work, and I am completely lost. Thank you very much :

    :)

    Is it safe to change CPU core setting in msconfig on HP laptop?

    Do not fiddle with 'Number of Cores' in msconfig, Windows knows which cores to engage in which order at boot time!

    Set your power plan to 'High Performance', right click on the CPU graph and choose "Change graph to ► Logical processors" then all cores will be utilized 100% during use.
    Never mind boot time.

    Changed number of processors in msconfig

    Hi , I went into the msconfig menu and selected Boot-Advanced and proceeded to turn the number of processors down to 7 from 8 and then decided that I was a genius and made boot settings permanent and now cant change it back. What effect will this have
    on my PC and should I change it back and how?? Thank you.

    MSConfig Advanced Boot Option, Boot Cores

    What is the MSConfig boot with more cores options, mine choose 6, and there is an available option of 12? What is that?
