I'm runin' with a AMD Athlon 64 3800+ X2, 2 gigs of Ram, Vista, and a Gefore 7900 GTO.

I don't know why it's doing this... :(

Anybody know how to fix it? I've been searching, to no avail.

It's because you've got a dual core. iirc, you enable compatibility mode, and switch it to windows 98.

Edit: this will save you from setting the affinity everytime you open up sapien.

[kenney001]

no. you dnot. You start up sapien but dont load a map. you Ctrl-shift-escape (task manager) and go to your process. Right click-set affinity-deselct one of the cores (i choose to use only my second core to allow maximum efficeincy)

Works fine on my dual core? But I'm intel.

Set affinity worked fine. I was going to do it earlier, but like a lot of things, it slipped my mind. Thanks kenney.
