    I use the laptop for music production and DJ:ing so low DPC latency is crucial and 004 and 015 are the only bioses that gives you low and (somewhat) stable DPC latencies. As 015 gives me random shutdowns (like for many others) I need to run 004. However, when running 004 the computer only runs on one core no matter what changes I try in the bios. I've talked to a distributor that sold 6625 as a "music laptop" and they ran it on 004 with both cores working.

    Does anybody have a clue why my laptop is utilizing both cores on 015 but only one on 004?

    My specs:
    T9300 2.5 GHz
    2 GB ram
    XP pro sp3

    I won't go into my struggles with trying to get help from Zepto on this matter...

    It might be because the T9300 wasn't supported in the 004 BIOS but has been implemented to be supported at a later time.
