Have you checked that the OS is running in multiprocessor mode? If not you can upgrade the kernel to multiprocessor

1. Is the second CPU recognized by the BIOS at system startup?
2. If no, which CPU has failed, 0 or 1?
3. Is it possible to exchange the part for an identical CPU?

Indeed there is no sufficient information but, what you might want to do is to check the Resource Kit tools because there is a tool that is designed to upgrade the system to multiprocessor. If it doesn't help, it might, at least give you some indications about what is wrong.
