This is the main difference between core 2 duo and dual core.Dual core processor contain 2 cores in a single chip where as core 2 duo in another name which is given by Intel.
A driver can be downloaded at the link below. Note that it is for Windows 95/98, so it may not work on newer versions of Windows.
Intel Dual Core processors are just launch striped down version of the Core 2 Duos... There are 2 on the market for high-end Desktop, c runs at 1.6 GHz with 1 MB L2 cache. and the Intel Core 2 Duo processors are next gen Intel processor on 65 nm platform… developed from ground with the new Architecture called Core.
