Vista - I have 'lost' one core of my CPU - Please help.

Hi,

I got the dreaded Error 43 message, after installing Vista and changing from
single core CPU to dual core CPU on my nF3 motherboard with ATI AGP graphics
card.

I next used VistabootPro to shut down one core, and see whether the ATI
Catalyst software would work again. It did. But the computer slowed down too
much. So I tried to start VistabootPro again to revert to dual core operation.

But VistabootPro does not open any more. Instead I get the message:
"XP ExplorerBar_nat.dll not found.
Cannot find native library. Please install the native library to your local
directory or to your system32 directory"

Can you please tell me how I can get ViistabootPro working again, or is
there another way to restore the CPU to full dual core operation?

Many thanks

Roy Mayo.

Correct me if Im wrong, but hasnt the fine line between sanity and madness
gotten finer?

I have not used vistabootpro nor heard of it until this post. I would
contact them for support.

It looks like the version of their product they have it beta and perhaps the
next release will solve your issue if they can't offer you any advise or you
don't format and start over.
