Whenever i attempt to change the program affinity for Warcraft 3 TFT i get an error message. It says like I dont have permission or something. Anyone know why?
thats is off the subject completely this is the CPU section, not the software section!!!! if there is a software section... but anyways i would reinstall the program or get another copy. i had the same problem with red alert 2 but all of the sudden it would start loading normaly
that game is multi-threaded, which means it's been written to use multiple cores. (i think up to 7 or 8, with one ''main thread'' and the rest for the ''menial'' stuff). i'd let it just do it's thing instead of trying to set it manually.
if it was a single-threaded app, then you'd have no problems setting the affinity.
You also have to be running with administrator privlidges. I don't know what error it throws if it's already multithreaded, I've never tried as it's kind of silly
