How do i know if the 2nd core is working?

Hi

Just built my first Dual core system (E2180)
How do I see what the 2nd core is doing? as everything so far seems to relate to a single core, how do i know if the 2nd core is idle or actualy doing something?

look in task manager and you will see 2 cpu usage graphs

yes but thats only a graph, thanks though

any programs that will let u see it in more detail? maybe control the CPUs better?


thanks

In CPU0/1, Start workload 100%. You should see both graphs in Task Manager at 100%.

Controlling software, I don't know any.

i'll give that ago
