The same as it shows up in your bios and in Windows as "2 CPU's".

You have to run 2 different Folding programs... Download Folding Home program, make 2 folders name one Folding1 & the other Folding2... now copy the Folding program into each folder. Now run the program out of each folder and fill out the main info... Name: your name Team: 93 when you get to advanced options make sure to say yes. and when you get to the last selection "Machine Id: make sure to put 1 for the first folder and when you setup the 2nd folder make sure to label Machine Id: 2 than you are good to go and folding will fold on both cores :)

Now when it submits a WU from each core Stanford will see 2 cores and not one :)

I just checked the 2 laptops that I set up on friday night, one has turned in the WU's it was working on and is on to the next set, the other is still cranking on 2107 and a 2108. Almost done though.
