Are you sure you've always had a C2D system, and not a AMD system? Eh, this just sounds plain weird.

How do you keep the same motherboard when switching from AMD to intel? Moreover, if its physically an AMD system... it is an AMD system.

Well Muffin Man, I guess someone ripped you off somewhere along the way, it apparently took you a really long time to figure it out! Did you check out the hardware when you bought it?

after cpu-z said it was an amd i opened it up (my comp), which i havnt done in a very long time, and it is in fact an amd so i have no idea where my c2d ran off to...

you're kidding, right? a whole mobo/cpu doesnt magically exchange itself with another set. you've probably been running the wrong rig fro a very long time then.

Did you build it or is it a Dell?

If you built it with a C2D, then the only way that it would be AMD would be if someone swapped the parts...
