Hi, still got bad performance running MP. Thanks for the great support Remedy!!

One other thing what seems a bit "weird" is the processor usage when running MP.

This is right after quitting MP....as you can see it constantly drops, which i think you can feel when playing the game.

This is right after playing Quake3....see the difference? Running at 100% CONSTANTLY. Yes Mr Joe3DR, John Carmack is his name.

Why isn't MP using all available resources? Am i the only one with this? Can anyone else using W2K verify this?

tried it, and usage stays well above 90% on my system. (Athlon 1.2 Ghz).
I would post a picture, but I have no clue on how to do that.

It clearly shows the usage when you start the game, not when running the game, as as opossed to Q3, both should begin at 0 or 1 to have a valid comparison.
