I don't think you need to worry, Alex. I've got the same single core CPU and as long as I can remember it always shown two of those little diagrams.

As you can see, the spikes in the right windows are different than in the left one. I think it is controlling two different things.

Doesn't seem normal to me. I too have several machines with mono-core CPU's and on NONE of them I have two separate performance graphs. :-/

Perhaps, as _526th_Fireman said, it's due to hyperthreading. You do have a P4 3.0Ghz after all. Try and deactivate hyperthreading and see what happens. :-?
