Ok im having a strange issue here with my AMD Phenom Black Quad Core 3.2ghz CPU. I play a game called Everquest which supposedly only runs on 1 Core of a any multi core cpu. It evens automatically sets the game to run on a single core on startup, this is suppose to help people who play multi instances of the game for boxing purposes on multi-cores. Now whats going on with my cpu is whenever i start Everquest Core0 will be completly maxed at 98% -100% which causes bad fps drops every few mins im able to counteract this buy going into task manager and setting Affinity to run on all cores. When i do this the load is dramatically decreased on Core0 and seems to be spread through all the cores. Im completly confused on why this is happening seeing as EQ is only able to run on a single core anyways they say. And even if im only running on 1 core why is an old game from 99 maxing my single core out? If anyone has an answer to this id much appreciate it, i like to fix it so it will run nice on 1 core like i tshould or some way to auto set it too run on all cores on startup, instead of having to go into task manager everytime i start the game and resetting Affinity. I hope someone can shed some light on this please.
Thanks
Sam
