quick question

aznshorty89

how do you know if the programs is running? is there a way to check that its doing its job?

BlackHawk

Open task manager and see how much cpu % the core is using.

it says im using 50 but in the window it says:

[20:41:28] Project: 2416 (Run 55, Clone 37, Gen 11)
[20:41:28]
[20:41:31] Assembly optimizations on if available.

I'm guessing you have a Dual Core. Windows sees each cores full load as 50%. Scroll up or down and you'll see the other core using the other 50.

aznshorty89

the only two there is the core at 50 and console at 0

Ultra-Nexus

What are your specs?

Im not sure if this is how im supposed to answer but i have AMD Turion 64 X2 with 1 gig RAM and running on vista

You are running and it looks healthy. The Turion X2 is a dual core and uses only one core for each instance of a non-SMP client. Are you using version 5.04?

Multi-core processors can run as many of these clients as there are cores providing that you

1. Have a separate installation and directory for each instance and
2. Set a different Machine ID (1,2,3...) in the advanced options during the startup configuration of each instance.

Yours can do 2 instances and if you were to run both at the same time you would use 100% of your processor.
