    1 Cpu processor running instead of 8 processors

    The spec shows an Intel Core i7-7700HQ which is a single processor with 4 Cores and 8 Threads.

    Can you post a screenshot of Task Manager Performance tab and select CPU.

    task manager shows zero cpu utilization after windows 10 1709 fall creators update

    Hello
    Laurentiu,


    There are several different reasons for why you have zero CPU utilization. It's showing that your CPU is dead. It could be an issue with the compatibility with the CPU and your device driver.

    Try updating your device driver. While it's likely you already have the most recent driver, if you're having trouble with a device, updating it would be the best course to take. To do this:


    • Select the Start button, type Device Manager, and select it from the list of results.

    • Expand one of the categories to find the name of your device, then right-click (or tap and hold) it, and select
      Update Driver. For graphics cards, expand the Display adapters category, right-click your graphics card and select
      Update Driver.

    • Select Search automatically for updated driver software.

    • If Windows doesn't find a new driver, you can try looking for one on the device manufacturer's website and follow their instructions.

    If these steps don't work, try reinstalling the driver: Open Device Manager, right-click (or tap and hold) the name of the device, and select
    Uninstall. Restart your PC and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

    Update us with the result so we can further assist you.

    Windows 7 used to show a CPU graph for each processor in Task Manager, but 10 by default shows just one graph for overall CPU utilisation. You can show separate CPU graphs in Task Manager if you wish, right-click on the graph and select Change graph to > Logical processors.
