I Think I Might Only Be Running One Core

[Brando569]

first off this is my setup:

A8N-SLI

AMD 64 X2 3800

2x512mb DDR400 Kingston RAM

when i installed x64 i know for sure i was running both cores because it would list both cores under device manager and i would have 1 graphs in the task manager. i figured since i had some older ddr400 transcend ram that i used on my previous asus board, i would try and use it. when i booted back into windows i said it found new hardware and was installing this "ACPI Uniprocessor x64-based" processor and i only see on graph in the task manager. would it be as easy as uninstalling the driver and reinstalling the asus one??

did you have a look at the AMD website

if they got a tech support email address just drop them a quick email asking them howto know if i got both cores on my cpu working

add the type of cpu and any other core info about the chip

i went to their site and downloaded the drivers for my processor and installed them but it didnt work i just sent them an email about it. Hopefully they'll have a solution.

well i think that you will have to reinstall windows. did you use nlite? and if so what cpu did u pick? windows installed thinking you had a single core cpu.

yea i think im gonna install windows again once i finish my UA. i gotta remake my start.bat cuz i deleted my whole OEM folder by accident... i didnt install it using nlite, it was just a normal xp 64 corperate edition, and it recognized both cores for a little while, its just when i installed the old memory along with the new ones it screwed stuff up...

just windows being stupid again, in nlite choose the ACPI multiprocessor
