Once I open my PC, at the first boot screen it says CPU: 1 Core then changes to 2 Core in 1 sec, is that normal?
Thanks guys

your blackops doesnt turn the screen on, the screen turns itself on :P :D
and yes, the core thing is normal, i read in intel docs about it and basically during early initialization one core is picked as the primary core and then used to boot the early steps of the bios, and then it enables the other cores.
so basically one guy pulls the short straw and has to get up and prepare breakfast while the rest of the pack keep snoozing until he wakes them up :lol:
