Experts,
I have a dual-core Athlon (X2 4400+) that I have recently moved onto a new motherboard: Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe. Now, the BIOS recognises the two cores on this chip, as does Device Manager under XP.
Did a fresh install of XP, and installed the latest Nvidia mobo drivers and AMD's X2 driver at V 1.3.2.
However, Task Manager thinks there is only one core/CPY, i.e only one CPU graph is shown and the usual "Show one graph per CPU" option is checked.
Also, and this is the proof, CPUZ states I have a Toledo AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+, but the usual dropdown at the bottom of the front-page does not let me select anything apart from Core 0. In fact the dropdown is disabled.
Finally, I downloaded AMD's CPUInfo tool. Again, ti shows only one processor and one core.
What am I doing wrong? On my old mobo 2 cores were evident in all these utilities...
