Question round dual core

D

Dyawlak

I have a Sony Vaio laptop with the Intel Core 2 Duo Processor (T5600). The
spec tells me this is a 64bit dual CPU processor. When I look in task
manager - performance - I only see 1 CPU [i have selected one graph per
CPU] - is there anything I need to do to enable the dual core?

Thanks

I got a chuckle out of that. In reality, that is why a high percentage of
postings here occur.

Well mine is like that except it has not changed.
Dell Dimension 9150
Intel 940 D Dual core
Vista 64bit Ultimate
4gb ram
Nivida Geforce 8800
Latest Bios updated, Mutil core turned on in bios
Intel CPU ID program ran ( see report info below

In device mgr two cpu's shown, yet Vista system info ( where the score
is, lists only one core.
Graph via Task manager , view performance oly shows one graph and I
cannot choose two, as area is greyed out.


I've running the Gadget called MultiMeterD124
and only one core is being used according to it.

Any suggestions anyone?
Thanks
Phil
