Will run on only 2 of my 4 cores

I enjoy helping others by contributing to this research effort. I want to contribute as much computing time as possible, however I have a Vista quad core processor and BOINC will only run on two of the four cores.

What do I need to do to fix this problem? How can I contribute more computing time to these projects?

Fields are below

If you are using version 6.2 of the software, then the number of processors used will be the lesser of the two fields below. If you are using a version before 6.2, then only the 'at most' field will be used.
On multiprocessors, at most use: processors
On multiprocessors, use: % of processors
