2 Processors showing in Device manager

Hego

I have recently built a new system. Latest ASUS motherboard with Pentium 4
2.6 ghz cpu etct etc. the build went well and the system is up and running
using XP.
BUT during the basis boot up it registers two P4 cpu's and then in device
manager it also shows two P4 2.6 cpu's.
Any thoughts..?
Thanks

I have the same problem. I only have two physical Xeon processors but the
system shows 4. I wonder why that is.

BWAHAHAHAHAHHAAH!!!
