Stepping Indicates the revision level of the
processor within the
microprocessor family.
string
UniqueID Identifies a globally unique

This identifier may only be unique
within a microprocessor family.
string
Brand Indicates the brand name of the
processor.
string
Model Indicates the model name of the
processor.
string
ExtendedCharacteristics Indicates the extended
capabilities of the processor. This
attribute is a bit field. The
following are the definitions of a
bit when set to one:
Bit 0 — Virtualization Technology
(VT) supported
Bit 1 — Demand-Based Switching
(DBS) supported
Bit 2 — eXecute Disable (XD)
supported
Bit 3 — Hyper Threading (HT)
supported
uint16
ExtendedStates Indicates the setting of the
extended capabilities of the
processor. This attribute is a bit
field. The following are the
definitions of a bit when set to
one:
Bit 0 — Virtualization Technology
(VT) enabled
Bit 1 — Demand-Based Switching
(DBS) enabled
Bit 2 — eXecute Disable (XD)
enabled
Bit 3 — Hyper Threading (HT)
enabled
uint16
CPUStatus Indicates the current status of the
microprocessor.
For example, it may be disabled
by the user through the BIOS or
disabled due to a POST error.
Values for the CPUStatus
property are as follows:
0 - Unknown
1 - Microprocessor enabled
2 - Microprocessor disabled by
user through BIOS setup
3 - Microprocessor disabled by
BIOS (POST error)
