sup3r1or Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 I dont know if it is any help, but if you are like me running Core 2 Quad then download from THIS TREAD the 50 meg package inside in the vanilla folder you will find CHUD.pkg install it, then Open Finder and click on your boot drive. From there, navigate to the following folders: Developer > Extras > PreferencesPanes and install "Processor.prefPane" (for all users) This should get the trick working, however Iam not sure if it will apply to AMD processors if you are using one.

t3hi3x Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Are you sure you aren't using the legacy boot flag? BTW... I have an AMD x2 and about my mac only shows one core, but my system activity utility shows both cores.
