I just downloaded the latest version as I had the 1.3.2. However, same thing happens, when using it, my CPU goes to 100%.
I have an old 2.4 Pentium and 1gig memory, bah, I will see next month when I will change everthing to fit the dual core AM2.

True, but it would be unwise not to advise.

Well I do not know what you play in general, but me, I do not have any games that continuously use 100% cpu. Excess heat does carry out shorter life span for the CPU, in other words, a premature failure of the integrated circuits. Now how much shorter, who knows? These dam CPU nowadays are extremely reliable?
