But your quad-core socket-F processor should be a single CPU socket. Is that
in fact the chip you are using? I think the other post was talking about
multiple CPU sockets ... the ASUS one, which would not apply if you have a
true quad core. The fact that Vista see's 4 CPU's in device manager suggests
that its working properly. When you look at the Performance Tab in the Task
Manager, do you see 4 graphs? If yes, the simple answer is that the gadget
is flawed.
