Right i've got a game im working on. At home it works fine (I have a single core CPU). When i try out my game at work, it justs goes skitso, it just doesnt run consistently, it takes ages to load and generally sucks. This can be resolved by forcing it to run on a single thread. Is there a way I can force it to a single CPU in code (im using C++ in windows xp)?
