    Dual core processor driver update

    What are the ways by which I can update the drivers of a dual core processor. I had found my CPU usage almost high in most of the conditions even if I do noting. Why this happens so in that. The other thing is that I found this on a article that updating this can fix the matter. And the other problem is that I have a ibm thinkpad. It is in old system. How to access the bios of the same.
