How do I get addition CPU cores to register.

Hello,
This is on Server Ent 2008 with Hyper-V. Hardware is a quad core CPU. I have
an existing win2008 x32 bit OS that was runing on Virtual Server. I have
migrated it over to hyper-V using the VMC to hyper-v converter. the machine
runs fine but with only one CPU showing in task manager. Properties shows it
recognises the quad CPU A clean build of a new hyper-v client server 2008
shows 4 CPUs in task manager. I can't figure out how to get addition CPUs in
the converted client. Set CPUs in setting to 2 and 4 and rebooted but still
only one CPU. Any hints or clues would be good. thanks.

> with only one CPU

start msconfig.exe, 'Boot' tab, Advanced options, enable 'Detect HAL',
reboot guest.
