Core 2 Duo Processor



I'm running XP Pro and am wondering if its truly able to support the
Core funcionality of this processor. Is it XP or do the programs also
need to support the Core 2 Duo processor? I'm going from a 550mhz
processor 5 years old so was expecting a lot more speed from the core
2 duo.

Thanks,
Pete
