HT enable on BIOS which doesn't supports it?

[Michal Semler (volny.cz)]

Hi, in my laptop Acer TravelMate242 I have HT enabled CPU,

but when I try start up with SMP or LocalAPIC kernel enabled, kernel freezes 
during boot time.

Is there any possibility to run HT enabled CPU on my laptop without BIOS 
support?
