Actually I'm also using a dual core by Intel. The quad core is lying around unused and waiting for a media center to be setup on it. The highest 4b9 version does not play on my dual core either but plays perfect on the quad core. On the dual core Intel though I'm using the highest dB settings on the ssse3b9 version and the CPU is going to about 6-8% for cPlay, that's all. No real high CPU usage like claimed.
Well, let me try that, Moser. Actually I am not at all sure I got the SSE instruction set support correctly as well. I am going to revisit that as well with CPU-Z.
Thanks for the heads up. Much appreciated.
