How do you tell if your processor is a "sandy bridge" one?

It's not your processor its the chipset. Google a programme called Everest 2.20

Sandy Bridge is a socket 1155 processor and thats only been out about 2 months so if your lappy or pc is older than 2 months there is definately nothing to be concerned by.

Shame as its a fantastic chip and great overclocker, hope its sorted quickly.

Well, we know where we're goin'
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowin'
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out

Thanks for the info JJ, a little bit beyond my techy knowledge! Got my lappie just a couple of weeks ago hence my initial concern but its got a relatively low spec Pentium T4500 processor so imagine it'll be fine.
