You try this: You must be an administrator. Click "Start", "Control Panel", "System and Security", "Administrative Tools", "Services". Locate "Intel Turbo Boost", right click it and choose "properties". Select "Automatic" in the "Start up Type" box. Click "Ok" and exit. Try and see if it now works.

I don't know why your laptop behave that way but in mine whether the number of processor box in msconfig is checked or not the result is the same in Open Hardware Monitor. Yes I'm aware of the option but it is one of the suggestions by others to speedup the boot/startup process. I'm not 100% sure whether your system is operating with two cores but I cannot find a way on how to verify it.

Also Turbo Boost monitor after booting of the computer should indicate a fluctuation of the bars then should return to the lowest level. You have not stated this but since you have indicated that your problem is solved I'll assume that it is behaving as stated.

After doing some experiments , I found a very interesting things

Uncheck the box in Msconfig like the image and whoop~ .. open hardware monitor shows 2 cores .

If the box checked , It will show only one !

As stated earlier you go to bios and set the number of cores. Set it to "all". This is for Intel motherboards. Since you have Dell you should ask Dell Tech support about it if you cannot see that option in the bios.
