Hi All,

having a problem where I successfully bootcamped Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit onto my Mac Pro 2008 model (Snow Leopard).

For some reason it is only reading 4 cores when running Windows 7, this is shown in the programs: Task Manager, CoreTemp and CPU Widget. - Now is it actually using the other 4 cores as virtual cores or does it literally mean it isn't using all my 8 cores?

What do I do to make it use all my 8 cores?

The Processor is a 2x Quad-Core Intel Xeon 2.8Ghz.

Hope someone can help.
Thank you.
