Actually, it's my mate's but I'm getting the E6600 on Monday as welll and just want to make sure that i don't run into the same issue.

He can only "see" one core working when in TaskManager. Does the second core need to be activared?
 
Thanks, we're going through the BIOS now. Problem is, he is very new to all of this and I don't want him to brick the mobo if the bios flush fails. We're looking for ways to make it as painless as possible

Have you set the task manger to read both cores? If you havnt open up the task manager, click the 'performance' tab, then click on 'view' at the top, click on 'CPU history', then click on 'One graph per CPU.' You probably have alreayd done this but you never know... :)
Click to expand...

Actually, i haven't, will try now. Thanks for suggestion!
