Probably not real dual core. What you are probably seeing is hyperthreading, which is fake dual core.
Run System Information (XP: start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Sytem Tools -> System Information) and provide the Processor information, that includes Family, Model, Stepping.
Or go here and get CPU-Z:
http://www.cpuid.com
Direct link to installer:
http://www.cpuid.com/download/cpuz/cpuz_153_setup.exe
and run it and post a screenshot of the first page (of the application, of course, not of the install process).
