Hi Tim,
You really have only one processor, but it is built on Hyper Threading
technology (that is what that HT Tech means in your specification). That is
why you see two processors in Task Manager. If you would have two processors
with HT you would see four.
What you can do in Task Manager under Performance Tab click on View > CPU
History > One Graph for all CPUs.
The other options is the disable hyper threading in BIOS, but I would advise
against it since it will decrease performance of your computer.
