Solve : How to run multi copies of the same game on different cores?

Answer» Hello!

(Please redirect to the right forum if i am not posting in the good one)


Here is my PROBLEM. I play a GAME that i open 4 times in 4 different screens. So I am running the same game x4. The problem is that they are all running under the same core and i have a quad core. So basically my first core is like 100% used and the 3 others are barely not even been used. I can see this when i press ctrl-alt-del and look at the core graphic panel.

I was wondering if there was a way to make my games run on different cores so the first one can be less used. Something like 1 game per core or I don't know, but anything that could make the 1st core been less used.

CPU info:

AMD AthlonII x4 635 Processor 2.9 GHZ
2G Ram DDR2 800mhz
OS: Windows Xp

Let me know if I am not enough clear!

Thanks for the help.
Open task man and right click the PROCESS itself and click 'Set Affinity' you'll have the option of setting it to the core you want. QUOTE from: Linux711 on May 23, 2011, 11:20:37 AM

Oh nice, thanks.
It works for some process, but it's not working for my games >.<
It says something like '' The operation cannot be done. Acess refused ''
There is probably a way to bypass this, i'll try to figure it out. Let me know if any of you know how.

Thanks!you could try to force it with something like Process Explorer.I just got to ask what games are you trying to run 4 times at once?
