how do i get SuperPi running to test both cores simutaneously?...I know there is a way to do it in Prime95 but how would I do it for SuperPi?

you do the same thing as Prime95, have two copies of the .exe and make sure they have different names. like SuperPi1.exe and SuperPi2.exe

Well I did not rename them.

I created two folders and place the benchmark files there.

Each folder has the ".exe" and ".hlp" file for superPi.

Works fine this way.

CPU & RAM stress test - two copies of super_pi_mod-1.5
