    Solved Windows 8 not using all 8 cores - FX-8120

    Ah ok, I get it now :D That's very nice, any idea what parked means? It usually says that for all cores after the 4th. I presume it means it just inactive because it isn't needed. Very nice! I may do the power option!

    Solved Windows 8 not using all 8 cores - FX-8120

    Just tried updating the BIOS, I think it failed but luckily I have one of those motherboards with Fail Safe, also I got MISSING BOOTMGR and when I went to repair it it thought I was on Windows 7. Might give it another try later.

    Solved Windows 8 not using all 8 cores - FX-8120

    I have an AMD FX-8120, it is an 8 core processor but Windows 8 seems to be only be recognizing 4 of them. Here is a screenshot from task manager It does say Physical Processors 8, but as far as I am aware it should also say it has 8 cores. Help would be greatly appreciated! Keir
