You have heat in 1 room but not 2nd, where is the register in the one room (attic?) Since there is one heat in 1 room, the previous owner may have split the room so they could have extra value to the house and may not have done job correctly (can you still contact them?). If they did, you may have adequate duct size for the area but is only installed in 1 room. That would be the easiest fix if they did because all you'd have to do is remove the old duct from the ceiling, put in a Y split to the correct size ducts for each room, add register, DONE. If you can't contact them, have a couple of contractors come give you an estimate, while they are there, PICK their brains about the way they would do it (act stupid) and then decide if it is to hard for you to do it yourself, they will tell you what size duct/register you'll need so the guess work is done on that part, just how handy are you?
