How To Set Processor Affinity In Windows Vista If You Have Dual Core

[MrMajormoron]

i have tripple core



[UserIsAnFBIAgent]

@MrMajormoron No you don't, you have either dual core with 4 threads or quad core with 8 threads. there's no such thing as triple core.

[MrMajormoron]

@UserIsAnFBIAgent AMD Phenom (tm) 8650 Triple-Core Processor (3 CPUs), ~2.3GHz

Thats what it says so i dont know now

[UserIsAnFBIAgent]

@MrMajormoron O.. It's an AMD. lol, ok.. well I don't know anything about the AMD. I only mess with Intel Processor Chips.

i just discovered the affintiy thing two hours ago. But tell me. My video rendering software eats up all my cpu, and the comp just crashes. so now i placed it on a single chip. But tell me. This wont damage my cpu in anyway right? is it a safe thing to do? btw thanks for the vid.

Thanks for showing us how to separate the processors so that each processor can handle a different task.

Is it any different if you set both those programs to both processors?
