I have installed an AMD Ryzen 7 2700, I noticed that my CPU for simple uses such as The start of Fortnite reached 100% load, so I looked for the problem then I noticed that only 2 and 4 logical (

) are displayed in the Task Manager under the Cors. I think something is "wrong" because I had a different processor. Is that correct or do I have to change something? Or is the processor possibly even broken?

How can I insert a picture here? I see no option.

Go to the start menu and enter "msconfig" into the search. Under the tab "Start" you click on "Advanced Options…" and then remove the checkmark at "Number of processors:" in the window. Then confirm both windows with "OK" and restart if you are asked to do so

All possible were selected, but it worked thanks 😊

If you want to insert a picture afterwards, you can only do that by answering your own question. You can then insert an image there.

Yes, that's what I mean. They want to give you an enema before you can see the picture.
