Moving slower than i should be

[SuSELinuxlord]

Hello all,

Well I have been having alot of problems with bzflag . Well here is the latest one: When I play it seems like I am obviously going 1/2 the speed of everybody else. Why is that? Is it like the opposite of the other guy. I happen to be using a proprietary tri-processor, no-name mobo (see my last post for a little more ) and i was thinking that it might be that windows isnt using it correctly (it has some type of hardware algorithim that makes windows think there is 2 processors for multi thread stuff. Then it takes like 1/2 of each tread and gives it to the 3rd processor which is like 125% faster than the other 2. I have no clue how it does this but it works flawlessly exept for obviously bzflag .

Thanks to everybody that has helped me .

Are you playing with keyboard? If yes, try to hit the "a"-key.

Well, that's funny - somewhat.

FYI: the timing for dual cores is real, it is connected to power management. The performance counter time measurement has to keep track of the current clock speed of the processors. And it didn't do that correctly on some configurations. I think it is fixed XP SP2 upward.

Well first thing I dont use keyboard. Second I am using sp2. Third I just got linux running on this freaky mobo and bz works just fine, i think its a windoze problem. Thanks.

A tri-processor? What are you doing to it? A dual-socket mobo with a dual-core and a single-core?

Please learn to spell...and if you would have read through the thread it has been stated that Windows is the problem...
