Subject: Question to dual PC users using WinXP and Fritz7

I'm currently using a dual Athlon running Windows XP.  When I run Fritz7 (single
processor version), I notice that the performance meter shows both processors at
100%.  This 100% is definitely attributed to Fritz7 as I have nothing else
running (the performance meter listing confirms this).

So, is the Fritz GUI (mines is dated 4th June 2002) using one of the CPUs flat
out, and the engine the other?  Do others see this?  I wouldn't expect the GUI
to do so, only the engine.

I'm sure that this isn't right and that in the past only one CPU has been
getting used (50% CPU usage overall).  I can only guess that something has got
"broken" and I need to re-install?!  Any suggestions?
