Multi/Dual/Quad-Core Issues

[Tetrian]

Ok, so far I've avoided this problem, simply by having google Chrome open in the background. However that program got an update recently, and now im getting hit full power with the issue. And nothing seems to work.

In short im getting slowed down in game. It seems to be very location specific. As in certain places in zones i get a massive slowdown - other places its just fine.

For instance, in north freeport i run just fine near the bank area. As soon as i exit the yard its like running though water. This slow down effect varies intensity.

Cast bars etc also move slower (spells go off before the bar finishes etc)

So far I've Updated windows, updated graphics drivers. Tried mixing the settings about. Tried /affinity 1 bat file. Tried setting affinity manually in the task manager. Even tried installing wineq2 - all to no use.

Does anyone have a suggestion to what to do to fix this?
