    sounds more like an issue in general with your environment? Hard to say for certain without more details. On XP SP3, E8400 C2D CPU, using the ACPI Multicore HAL my load gets evenly balanced across both cores. Might want to check your affinity mask in Task Manager. If it's only getting set to one core, need to change it.

    There's nothing wrong with the affinity, it's set to all 4 cores. FFXI doesn't know how to multicore, so once it maxes out one core, it doesn't switch to the next.

    I strongly believe there's a .dat in common with all those zones I listed, which is causing my CPU to crash.
