processor i5 all 4 cores same processing amount

Hi all, hope you can help.

I have an i5 750@2.67GHz four cores. When I look up the status of the cores it shows that all 4 cores are running pretty much exactly the same processing amount.

I not sure that it supposed to do that. I cannot update the drivers with automated driver updater keeps failing.

Can someone please help me out, don't know what to do. It is affecting the processing of automated radio system.

I have attached a copy of status report.

Regards

Michael Harrington

Looks like it is working correctly to me.

Close all apps, and show the CPU activity.

Also, download and run https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/19792 Download Intel® Processor Diagnostic Tool

And, you did not provide what OS you are running, and your computer/motherboard model number. If you are using Windows 10, you should note that your processor is not supported.

Hi Doc

I closed all programs and the attached is what I get.

Sorry forgot to mention:

Windows 10

Gigabyte P55-UD2

16gb Ram

Intel i5 750 @2.67GHz

I ran diagnostic and all passed but I didn't think that all cores would have operated at the same time at the same amount.

The second chart is what I would expect from an idle state.

As I mentioned, your processor is not supported on Windows 10.

Hi Michael,

Your CPU usage looks healthy; however, I have to second on what Doc mentioned, your graphics controller does not support Windows® 10. The CPU usage may vary if the operating system is not supported, especially since there are no drivers that can manage the resources for the CPU, chipset and other components.
