Start | Run | Type msconfig, and click OK | Boot tab | "Advanced options" button | If "Number of processors" is checked, uncheck it, hit OK, and put a check in the "Make all boot settings permanent" check-box... , hit OK and reboot. If it isn't already checked, put a check in the "Number of processors" check-box and select 4. Again put a check in the "Make all boot settings permanent" check-box, hit OK and reboot.

Download Core Temp and post a pic. of the System Information applet, located under the Tools menu, and showing the frequency of all 4 cores.
