September 10, 200619 yr In the cmd line, to use CPU1 (2nd CPU), I have two versions of the switch:imagecfg -a 0x2imagecfg -a 2x1The first is from the web site http://www.robpol86.com/Pages/imagecfg.phpthe second from a post here some time ago that I had clipped to Notepad. In the post the author was describing how to run FS9 from CPU0 and AS6 from CPU1.Do both versions work- or is only one correct?Thanks- Bruce. ASEL, Instrument. KBJC, Colorado.
September 10, 200619 yr Hi Bruce,Not really answering your question, but I did the switch a while ago and wish I hadn't bothered. I find performance better with affinity set to both processors... so as I forget what I did to set it I need to manually reset affinity everytime I run FS.I just checked and it's 0x1 or 0x2 depending on which processor you want to asign.My problem is how to undo it.Cheers,Paul
September 11, 200619 yr Author Thanks for the switch info Paul.Looking at the doc I figure that you have to re-install the .exe file (FS9.exe). I'm not sure where it is on the CD's. Or you may have backed it up somewhere. I figure that if you're running FS9.1 then you couldn't back it up from the CD's.How did you determine worse performance with then affinity mask- just by measuring fps, or was it something else?Bruce.

September 15, 200619 yr No, just re-run imagecfg with a mask of 0, ie 0x0. That enables both (v)CPUs.RegardsBob ScottATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-V L-300Santiago de Chile Bob Scott | President and CEO, AVSIM Inc ATP Gulfstream II-III-IV-V Sys1 (MSFS20+24/XPlane12+11): AMD 9800X3D, water 2x240mm, MSI MPG X670E Carbon, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, nVidia RTX4090FE Alienware AW3821DW 38" 21:9 GSync, 2x4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2x2TB Samsung 990 SSD, EVGA 1000P2 PSU, 12.9" iPad Pro Thrustmaster TCA Boeing Yoke, TCA Airbus Sidestick, Twin TCA Airbus Throttle quads, PFC Cirrus Pedals, Coolermaster HAF932 case Sys2 (P3Dv5/v4): i9-13900KS, water 2x360mm, ASUS Z790 Hero, 32GB GSkill 7800MHz CAS36, ASUS RTX4090 Samsung 55" JS8500 4K TV@60Hz, 3x 2TB WD SN850X 1x 4TB Crucial P3 M.2 NVME SSD, EVGA 1600T2 PSU Fiber link to Yamaha RX-V467 Home Theater Receiver, Polk/Klipsch 6" bookshelf speakers, Polk 12" subwoofer, 12.9" iPad Pro PFC yoke/throttle quad/pedals with custom Hall sensor retrofit, Thermaltake View 71 case, Stream Deck XL button box Sys3 (DCS/P3Dv4/ATS/ETS): AMD 7800X3D, MSI MPG X870E Carbon, Noctua NH-D15S, 64GB GSkill 6000/30, EVGA RTX3090 Alienware AW3420DW 34" 21:9 GSync, Corsair HX1000i PSU, 4TB Crucial T705 PCIe5 + 2TB Samsung 970Evo Plus, TM TCA Officer Pack, Saitek combat pedals, TM Warthog, TM RS300 FF wheel/pedals, Coolermaster HAF XB case
