If you are on an NT station ( I assume NT windows cuz win95 doesn't support
multi-cpu's ) then
the system call GetSystemInfo will return a C struct filled with all the
goodies.
the struct is defined as:  ( winbase.h , kernel32.lib )

typedef struct _SYSTEM_INFO { // sinf
    union {
        DWORD  dwOemId;
        struct {
            WORD wProcessorArchitecture;
            WORD wReserved;
        };
    };
    DWORD  dwPageSize;
    LPVOID lpMinimumApplicationAddress;
    LPVOID lpMaximumApplicationAddress;
    DWORD  dwActiveProcessorMask;
    DWORD  dwNumberOfProcessors;
    DWORD  dwProcessorType;
    DWORD  dwAllocationGranularity;
    WORD  wProcessorLevel;
    WORD  wProcessorRevision;
} SYSTEM_INFO




On a Unix Box I don't know the call, but i am sure it exists.
