Re: Using too much processing power

OK, I set the SMP to "2", which should make it use 2 of the 4 cores, right? After this change, the Task Manager is still showing nearly 100% CPU usage. If I no longer wanted to use the GPU, would I change the setting from "-1" to "0"?

Re: Using too much processing power

Ahhhh. I never saw the dropdown box since I hadn't had the window maximized. That helped significantly. Thanks. There is still a bit more lag than I'd prefer however. Is there a way to scale back the CPU folding a bit?
