Hi,
I have just upgraded from a 4 core processor to the AMD FX 8350 8 core processor.
I installed everything in and booted up to windows, however when I check my task manager it only shows 4 blocks (See picture)
![]()
and when I go to msconfig, boot, advanced options, it only showed in number of processors as 4. However when I went into the bios and advanced bios settings, it showed cpu control and then the following:
Core 1-2 - Enabled
Core 3-4 - Enabled
Core 5-6 - Enabled
Core 7-8 - Enabled
Not sure If i am missing something simple?
