Processes on Multiple cores

[simmonz]

Hey All,

Just a quick one. I know this probably not possible (yet) but thought I'd ask. Is it possible to dictate what processes are on a specific core.

EG ...say i have my anti-virus scan running on core 0 ... is there anyway I can swap it to core 1/2/3 ??

ok thanks. Just heard about it a while ago and couldnt think of what it was you needed to set to enable this.

We have a few multi-core cpu's here at work, and some guy I work with said it wasnt possible (he works in IT, like myself.

Although this was the same guy who said he can make PS3 games work on the Xbox 360 by simply.."altering" the code

Sounds like a real genius

yeh thats only one thing that he's said. I could list a whole host of things he has come out with.

I'll have a look at that imagecfg . Because I basically wanted to run my games on a seperate core to everything else.

Oh, please do. We could use a laugh.

Well, recently he's been running around telling everyone how he's hacked peoples msn / paypal accounts..telling practically everyone at work...

He was telling the security manager (not a wise idea really is it) how he shifted this guys money around through 3 or 4 accounts...so it constantly looped.

Does the same with Xbox accounts on xbox live. then strats going around telling people he's doing it.

he's only 17 and he runs around the IT department telling people who have been here 15-20 years how it SHOULD be done. bloody IT juniors!
