Dual core support?

[hoom]

No mention in the manual either.

Anyway, at my work, we have USB drivers that don't support dual core. If you try to use those drivers on a dual core (or dual socket, quad core or P4 with Hyperthreading) then your computer will randomly freeze when Windows trys to move some of the code onto the other core.

Obviously of course, we'd all like to see games splitting processing evenly over multiple cores but most games are highly sequential. (see Ahmdahl's law)

For the record by the way, I just took this screenshot of my CPU usage playing the game on a Core 2 Duo E6600:

To the left is the campaign map, then loading a battle, the battle intro, then alt tab out to desktop.

That's about what it looks like here, have the same CPU, you get the impression that when the load on one core increases, it decreases on the other one, as if it would only use one core but split the load to two cores.
