If it works, find some utility which does it, so you don't have to do it manually all the time. One of them is named RunOnce.exe, google it.
This solution by Dr.Sid was of great help for me as well. Thank you .

It seems dual cores and Dangerous Waters don't match pretty well.
I just wanted to add that the utility to set affinity automatically "app by app" is "runfirst" by www.activeplus.com. It's a free utility. You have to use it at runtime as for example - runfirst "dangerouswaters.exe". Place the little runtime file in the dangerous waters directory and then build a .bat file with a shortcut in your desktop. I am using it with Steam DW.
In fact I meant RunFirst, not RunOnce :rotfl:
