The kernel always distributes tasks evenly over all availabel CPUs.
Assuming the CPUs were all detected (appear in /proc/cpuinfo) it should
distribute the processes evenly. BIOS has nothing to do with that.
Likely it is some user space issue, maybe whatever application you use
to distribute the processes in the cluster is misconfigured.
