I just got a AMD Dual Core Athlon 64 x2 3800+ off one my m8's who has had it for over 2years. It appears to only be running off a single core, when I go into task manager it only has 1graph. I did a cpu-z test and it comes up with the 1core running at normal speed (2000mhz) but theres no hint of the second core running at all. I'm using Windows XP pro 64bit and Gigabyte GA-K8N Ultra-SLI Motherboard. I can post the cpuz results if that'll help. Any help on the problem is greatly appreciated.
