Windows recognize both physical and logical cores as independent unit, in fact prior to Win 7 the OS thread scheduler not even cared if a core was physical or logical.
The Windows task manager shows the average of all CPU cores usage including logical cores but also can show (depend on configuration) a graph for each core, whether it is physical or logical.
