Okay, i almost forgot to ask you to try this.

1.Run/msconfig (or type msconfig in the search and hit enter)

2.Click the Boot Tab

3.Click Advanced options

4.Check number of processors, if it's checked, un check the box and restart

do the same again but check the box and select 3 and restart.

i will try that in 1 second, and when i first got my computer i set it to 3 and how it only shows i have 2 core in msconfig.

i just now  ran the "HP Hardware Diagnostic tool" everything else passed, expt it says my "multicore test" is misconfigured?

i how have 3 cores and 3 threads showing on all apps

my core Watts droped from 1.200v to 1.050v but everything looks to be fine

i must have done something wrong the first time in msconfig thanks a alot everyone!
