Lol dual core doesnt have anything to if you can run a program or not

Dual is just a CPU with 2 cores so it acn work better at running multipile programs. And can run at a higher clock rate

So they program will work defiantly

But your motherboard

Actually dual core might slow down performance.

TO test, go into the task manager, and right click on the game process (pol.exe, eq2.exe, etc) and go into processor affinity.

Uncheck CPU1 and see if it helps speed up scripts.

it'd be the same deal as setting the process affinity for hyper threading processors - but since this is two cores in one package, it might not experience the same problems as hyperthreading was having.
