1. Open Regedit. Start –> in run type regedit –> enter
2. Highlight Computer in left pane.
3. Select Edit from the menu –> Find –> Paste the following to search: 0cc5b647-c1df-4637-891a-dec35c318583
4. Select Find next.
5. Make sure ValueMin and ValueMax are set to 0. If already 0 then leave alone. If not double click on ValueMin/ValueMax and type 0 and save.
change to
6. F3 to find the next one, there should be around two or three.
7. Once finished search will advise it has gone through the entire registry.
8. Shut down and restart.
9. All cores should be in use now.
