I was just curiuos how you check to make sure Windows is recognizing both cores. I've heard of a lot of people having problems where your setup will not recognize the second core and you have to enable it.

I know its a bad description, but i'm rather curious.

Any info would be appreciated.

Open up Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del or Ctrl+Shift+Esc) and look at the Performance tab, if you have two graphs for CPU usage you're all set.

Under CPU Usage History there is 2 graphs listed, but CPU Usage itself has 1 graph. I assume thats what you mean?
