I was looking at my system specs using dxdiag, and it says my processor speed is 2.8ghz which is fine it says (2cpu's) ?? I'm positive my comp is a single core, so my question is why does it say 2 cpu.

What CPU do you have?

its hyperthreading, it makes Windows think theres two cpus when theres really one using hyperthreading.
