Just tried this and found that my FS2004 appears to be using both cores already.

Still ... it was worth a try.

Yup, same here - my dual-core laptop is already using both cores averaging around 45-50% usage each, and the quad-core desktop is using all four at something less than 40% each.

Same as the above two replies. 

I followed the link to the MS hotfix mentioned, and it's for SP2 XP users, so it may have been included in SP3 or another update. ;)
