Hello,
I am having a M2n MX Motherboard with Windws 7 OS installed. The PC is working fine but in Task bar it is showing only single core where as my Mother board in Bios says its Dual core

Task bar? you mean task manager? Open the device manager, then look under computer. It should say something like ACPI MultiProcessor PC. If it doesn't say multiprocessor, then the wrong HAL is installed. You may be able to right click on that setting and try to update the driver to the correct one, or possibly delete the entry and reboot and hopefully windows will detect the correct one and install it, but a clean install should fix it.
