Hi!
Recently i was using an antimalvare program.After i removed all threats,I restarted the computer.When i turned it back on i noticed difference in my computer performance.
I checked at programmes like Cpu temp,Cpu Z.., and they say i only have one core,but in bios it says that I have 4 cores.I already tried changing the number of proccesors in msconfig but it gives me the option to select only 1 core.Now my cpu is working at 100% almost all the time.Are my 3 cores dead?What should i do?Buy a new processor,I really dont want to do that.Please help.Btw my processor is Intel i5-2320 3.00 Ghz.
Greetings
