Another note on cpu affinity and dual core processors....AMD makes a Dual Core Optimizer that fixes the issues that can occur with dual core processors and older software. It can be found here: http://support.amd.com/us/Pages/dyna...42f&ItemID=153

DO NOT use that program if you have an Intel Processor.

DO NOT use any dual core optimizer or dual core fix with a quad core processor.

BTW, I tried this:

Code:

c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /C start /affinity 1 "c:\Program Files\Sony\Everquest\eqgame.exe" patchme

And it worked perfectly

It pops up a command prompt window briefly before starting EQ, but it closes right away on it's own. Other than that, it works just like starting EQ normally and sets the affinity as can be seen through the task manager after starting EQ. And, this is supposed to work on any multi-core CPU, not just on Dual-Core. You can chose which processor you want to use by changing the "/affinity 1" to 2, 3, 4 or whatever. Setting it to 1 uses CPU 0, and so on.
