When i bought new processor, it was showing all 4 cores of CPU in Q8200.
But dont know since when, but now its showing only 3 cores since 1-2 months.
Core#0
Core#2
Core#3
Core#1 has disappeared.
I checked it by many utilities, bt all showing same including Device Manager. Windows and Linux too.
Performance is also affected.
My core temperatures remains high like 65-68 at idle time and at peak load, it reaches upto 80 C
So that core disappeared due to heating Problem??
IS it possible that CPU/MainBoard itself had disabled/locked it due to overheating ? If yes then how to re-enable it
OR it is fried up and i can never get it working again??
Can anybody help me out...
Other specs:
Intel DG31PR MainBoard
4 GB DDR2 RAM (2+2)
Latest BIOS Updated
Win 7 x64 Ultimate
Thanks
