I am having really bad framerates (fps) on my dual core! What am I doing wrong?
This error is sometimes reported by people having multicore-CPUs. To solve this, you could try to restrict it to run on one core. Download the file from http://www.robpol86.com/pages/imagecfg.php follow the instructions, and make all of the spring exe files (spring.exe, TASClient.exe, all others) run on one core.
Installing the latest processor drivers and Windows hotfixes for your system may also help.
