question about dual core

[af01waco]

I installed a new AMD x2 4200+. Task manager shows two graphs for cpu usage history, but only one for cpu usage. Is this correct or should there be a graph for each cpu? Help please. Also i didnt reload XP after installing the new proc, shoud i do this? Thanks.

So you think i should reinstall XP? Also, i noticed you have the same proc, and have overclocked to 2.45, what are the settings u are using and are u using extra cooling.
thanks

Your fine.
No need to re-install XP if you just upgraded your CPU.

The single bar is total cpu utilization, the other 2 bars are for each specific core.
