Re: How to set game to use all 4 cores? - 25% CPU usage CTD

Thanks for this link and info censurely. I already read it.

I just haven't got the nerves trying things like this. Every other game runs perfect on my machine (Mass Effect, Dishonored, Thief, Tombraider (2013), Skyrim with loads of mods etc.). It is only Dragon Age: Inquisition that causes me troubles.

I found an interesting debate at Tom's Hardware. A guy wrote how to check the usage of CPU in Windows, and so I did as well. My system only used 1 core. I changed it to 4. Now I have to test.

"After searching a bit more i found a solution which now says my CPU is using all cores

Before this the maximum used % of the cores was

Core 1 - 100%
Core 2 - 5%
Core 3 - 5%
Core 4 - 5%
Core 5 - 5%
Core 6 - 5%
Core 7 - 5%
Core 8 - 5%
(estimates because i dont remember to the exact percent)

now theyre all maxing around 90%

Method:
run msconfig -> boot - > advanced options
Check "number of processors"
then select value (mine being 8)(OP's being 4)
Restart computer

I hope this helps anyone coming here which the same issue, because it annoying me seeing someone saying fixed with no explanation"
