Dual 4-core processor - only one shows up in Vista Home Premium

[3deuces]

I bought Windows Home Premium. I have a dual processor workstation. Each
processor is quad-core XEON 5355. Only one got installed, so my task manager
only shows 4 cores, and DxDiag only shows one processor.

In XP Pro I see all 8 cores. Did I get the wrong version of Vista?

True
Home versions of Vista do not support Dual Processors

From Page.

"While all editions of Windows Vista can support multiple core CPUs, only
Windows Vista Business, Ultimate, and Enterprise can support dual
processors"
