So your other core failed to start. You might try a lack posting exact model/bios version of the machine and mainboard. But indeed, this is most often BIOS bugs. Sometimes in the strange areas like USB, e.g. SMI handler for emulating legacy PS/2 keyboard. As a shot in the dark, try to fiddle with this setting.
Not exactly sure what you mean by lack, but if you want the mainboard info I can give that. It is an MSI P67A-GD65 (B3) using BIOS version 1.I (release date 2012-01-12). Manufacturer's page for this mainboard is at http://www.msi.com/product/mb/P67A-GD65--B3-.html
I am thinking you are right about the BIOS issue. Unfortunately I didn't see any BIOS options about legacy PS/2 support only legacy USB. But turning legacy USB off didn't have any effect. There is a whole section for overclocking the processor and memory. Wondering if there is a setting in there causing problems. Right now I have the overclocking options set at the defaults so there shouldn't be any overclocking.
Out of curiosity I threw in a Sabayon Linux 8 livedvd to see what would happen during bootup. It didn't have any problems that I noticed and found all four cores.
