I have problems with simple OpenMP parallel programs on my laptop (https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/vtune/topic/856459). So I want to try to disable hyper-threading option to increase parallelism. If I'm not mistaken, it should be done in BIOS. However, there is no hyper-threading option in BIOS on my laptop. So, how can I do it? The model of laptop is Acer Nitro AN515-51 and I have Windows 10 on it. CPU is Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ.

Sorry, but questions regarding the bios must be handled by the manufacturer of the laptop or motherboard manufacturer.
