    what you read is it does not support dual processors. which is 2 physical processors. such as in a server. a dual core processor is a single socket processor ->there is only 1 physical processor.

    I have dualcore also and it works just fine, almost everyone has dual-core and vista works just fine. It's exactly like Nizzy said.
