I open up task manger and the same thing in the resource manager I have no idea what's going on

You cannot just "lose" cores.

I know I could think of another way to say it

Well, first check if the BIOS sees the CPU as a 6 core CPU, otherwise you need to reinstall windows.

either your CPU or your motherboard is dieing. I bet its the mobo as that is a REALLY shit mobo....

Check ur BIOS settings or just reset them into default settings.

U cannot just lose some cores. or perhaps.

Its the motherboard bios problem.. usually.

U need to update your BIOS.

check your grammer?

Ok how would I be able to tell if it is the cpu or mobo dieing

That is way odd.  It looks like you are looking at the VM.  Try to run linux to see what happens. Also reset Bios to defaults.  

Have you overheated the MB at some point?  It looks like the MB is on it's way out I'm afraid.  

[cirmsonbiker]

yeah I just updated my bios and reset but still doing the same is there anyway I can test to see if it is the mobo or the cpu

Check in "msconfig" command for advanced boot option and CPU limit.
UNCHECK CPU limit option, save, and restart.

[cirmsonbiker]

do you mean the number of processors box

[cirmsonbiker]

I did and got a blue screen saying bad msconfig
