Hi all,

Is there a way that I would be able to know that the 2 CPUs in my SQL Server
2005 are both utilized?

Thanks in advance!

Salvador,

Unless you are running SQL Server 2005 Express (limited to 1 processor) or
have used  the affinity_mask option, it should use all processors available.
About affinity_mask:

If you log onto your SQL Server box and run Task Manager, you should quickly
see (provided the server is doing something) that both CPUs are being hit by
the work.
