Hardware Info
Procesor: i7-930
HDD: Western Digital Caviar Black 7200rpm 640gb
MOBO: GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R LGA 1366 Intel X58
OS: Currently installed - Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit

So I started overclocking my processor. Finally got a stable setting at 3.6 but after I got done testing everything I noticed that in realtemp its now only reporting the temperature for 3 cores as opposed to when it originally reported temps for all 4 cores..


Please assuage my fears and tell me I didn't fry a core or something . . . . Picture below

I noticed that you were using real temp gt. Real temp gt only shows 3 cores for some reason.
Use the regular real temp application and you will see 4 cores.
 
Go into your BIOS under "advanced chipset features" and see if you are able to enable all 4 cores.
 
You clicked on RealtempGT.exe instead of Realtemp.exe

press CTRL-ALT-DEL and see how many cores you have under processes.
