how can I fully load a core2 duo with Vista?

i'm running a intell core 2 duo 2.4Ghz plus it's overclocked. my setting is and 100% cpu, and running vista home prem.

according to my temps and system cpu usage monitor i'm only running about 50% max ability.

Is there any way I can use 100% of the true pontential of this machine?

I suppose you use United Devices.

You can uninstall that programm and then install boinc. Boinc will run on every core a task. So you will then be running 2 tasks simultaneously and use 100 %.

You can download boinc from this website. I hope you get it working. If you still have questions feel free to ask them

Vista sometimes objects to maintaining work files in the Program Files subdirectory. Installing in C:\BOINC cures this problem.
