CPU Hunger!

I have recently started using the download client rather than playing in the browser, but I am having issues when playing 2 tables at the same time and ideally I want to play 4.  It keeps freezing up, timing out on 1 of the tables, running the clock right down on every decision, not displaying the hole cards straight away and is slow dealing the board.  In the task manager SkyPoker.exe is using over 50% of my CPU most of the time and over 250,000 K of memory.  My laptop is a couple of years old dual-core and should be able to handle this no problem; I can play 6 tables on PS with no issue at all, I have no issue when playing in the browser.

 

Is there anything I can do?

    When I try and change the Priority or affinity I get an error message saying,

    The operation could not be completed.

    Access is denied.

    I am the only user on my laptop so not sure why I cant check that its able to use both Processors and set the Priority to high

    You could re-install the download software, or do a maintanence check, free up memory, check for updates etc to improve your laptop's performance?.


    Im sure Matcka will give you some sound advice on this m8.
