Adding 2nd Processor

I want to add a second processor to the server, which has
MS SQL7 Server running on it, and want to know if there
is anything I need to do to SQL7 Server either before or
after I add the processor.In article <2b8801c3747d$90def250$a101280a@.phx.gbl>,

If you have a per processor license you will have to buy another.|||What OS are you using? If it is NT4.0 you need to upgrade the OS kernel to
the multi-processor one..

Providing the OS can see the processor, SQL will use it, there should be
nothing required from SQL,
assuming that the affinity mask has not been set (by default this is not
set)
