Hi i put together a new computer last Saturday.
intel core 2 duo e5200 45nm 2.5ghz
gigabyte g31m-s2l
asus 512mb 9800GT
W.D Sata 640gig
2x2gig kingston pc6400
coresair hx520
The problem im having is that the cpu is being run as a single core. I assumed it was just due to an outdated bios so i updated that to f6 however im still not being given the multicore option in the advanced features section. The motherboard is advertised as supporting 45nm processors on gigabytes website.
Cpu-z and realtemp both display it as 1 core and cpu-z wont show fsb or ram speed. I also cant set affinity of programs to differant cores in windows so im sure that it is running as a single core. the only hal that displays is also the standard computer hal but in windows instal it wont give me any other option (iv even tried a couple versions of windows to see if that was the problem.)
really hope its just some error on my part and easily fixable
Thanks from Tattered
