I have a HP machine running media centre which I believe is XP Pro with some
goodies bolted on.

I have a problem that my computer is reporting I have two processors
installed.

Any ideas please

This is not a problem.
Your PC probably has a Hyper Threading CPU, this appears to the operating
system as 2 processors.

"Dual" hyperthreading would require two physical processors, if such a thing
were possible.
