I have a workstation with a dual processor and I'm not quite sure how to get it to work. Any one have a good link, guide or explanation to help me out here.
Thanks in advance

Dual processors work off the bat. Nothing needed.

Dual Boot ~ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_boot

What I would like to be able to do is run a system hog in the other core to speed up the computer while the tasks are going on.

Don't click on quoted links, click the originals. Afterdawn's quote system adds HTML code at the end of URLs in Quotes, so they'll turn up as 404s.
