Is MA coded for 2 CPU's? I think I read that somewhere, can anyone confirm, and if so, to what extent is it multithreaded??

I doubt it is coded for 2 CPUs. AFAIK only WinNt 4 and upwards will support 2 processors + you need an expensive motherboad. As for multithreading I guess it is possible but if so I'd like to know why! (personally unless there is a really good reason to do it I think multithreading should be avoided as it is often more hassle than it's worth!). That said, maybe it does multithread which could account for my CD lockups!

Thanks Dave, I got that info (about MA being multithreaded) from the Software Angles forum on this site. It's said in a thread started by me (Goanna). Cheers

Goanna, I cannot access the Software Angels forum so I am unaware of what was said. Now if I had access!
