Download and Run CPU-Z. It will tell you LOADS about the current processor

It should say: Cores 2, threads 2 in the bottom corner, like mine does: http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=131549

Doesn't it mistake Hyper threading for dual CPUs though?

Re: how can i check if my laptop is a intel core 2 duo?

Code:
Processor(s):              2 Processor(s) Installed.
                           [01]: x86 Family 6 Model 15 Stepping 6 GenuineIntel ~
3037 Mhz
                           [02]: x86 Family 6 Model 15 Stepping 6 GenuineIntel ~
3037 Mhz
Shouldn't it be 2 logical CPU's? 1 Physical CPU though really?

Nope Hyperthreading is logical as it's just 1 CPU.... You have 2 real CPUs lap it up mate and enjoy.
