Ok - running an E8300, 4 gig ddr2 blah blah, always having issues with cores and ET.

tried to go to set affinity for ET via task manager - access denied.

Running Windows Vista Business N 32 bit.

Ideas??????

running as admin naturally right?

Click on 'Show Processes from All Users' and try setting the affinity again.

not sure if this will work but

modify "Target" in your shortcut
C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C start /affinity 1 et.exe
to dedicate the first CPU core to the game (or "/affinity 2" for the second, and so on)

I thought that in Vista you need to have admin status to be able to make changes to core affinity...

Can you set access to the account you logon with so that you can have 'full access'?

I know in XP there is no issue of 'access denied' to majority of softare (except for some critial windows software) but I have heard that for Vista its different.
