PC upgrade not what i was expecting

[Aquilo]

Well, i got BF 1942 & BF Vietnam running using core affinity! They both run smoothly at 1600x1200 on the second core. A problem running them on multi core/CPU it would seem. Still no joy with oblivion. Setting affinity only makes the problem worse. The main problem is in exterior cells, a small judder ever 10 seconds or so, but enough to miff me off.

I have been using the affinity program called THG TaskAssign to set the cores. but I have to run the program before i run the game. Is there a way to make this run in the background when windows starts up, or something that can set affinity in the games shortcut.

Cheers

I seem to remember you being able to set affinity by right clicking the program in question, selecting properties, and looking around in there.

Also, you should be able to make a shortcut to the "THG TaskAssign" program in your Start > All Programs > Startup program group.
