something wrong with my dual core?

ecoding some videos using nero vision, and i set it to 'below normal' in the options (priority).

If i set the affinity in task manager to cpu 1 only, the cpu stays at 40% or so. But if i set the affinity to cpu 0 only, the cpu usage shoots up past 80%.

Setting affinity to both sees the usage shoot up in the 90% range.

Any ideas about this? I tried leaving it set to cpu 1, but whacked it up to 'high priority' in nerovision's options but windows slowed to a crawl, even though only 50% usage was shown! I don't get it.

my rig is prime stable last i checked...do i need some sort of patch? Incidentally, playing games whilst using 'below normal' in nerovision was smooth as silk, so i'm sure the cpu isn't broken as such...but something isn't right.
 
ah right, so is it normal that it should be on 100% usage when i'm only using nerovision?

i think the think might be that i just started using the latest version of nero vision and maybe it's dual threaded now?
