So I was doing some research on UT99 for (http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=685746) dual-core problems, when I came across (http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=983781) this. (Note: Most of the fixes seem to be related to AMD - skip to Fix #4)

Also, I did do a search on TTLG and found the following threads (all old, hence this thread):
(http://ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=102662&highlight=winlauncher+xp)
(http://ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=118367&highlight=winlauncher+xp)
(http://ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=109793&highlight=winlauncherxp)

They all have tips on dual core problems, and mention WinLauncherXP, a program I found while trying to fix my Unreal Tournament speed/glitchy issue. I tested it with Thief and thief 2, they both work!:thumb:
Note: When using the program to configure your game, make sure Processor 1 is checked, and all others are unchecked. (Under the SMP tab when making a configuration for a game.)

DISCLAIMER: Download and use at your own risk. If you're paranoid, scan the file for anything bad. Appears to be safe though.

Anyway, thought this might be useful to some other folks who don't feel like doing permanent changes to their system or temporary solutions (alt+tab affinity solution) I also post this in the hopes that it will be useful for the thief FAQ.

FlipTIB has been written specially to fix multi-core issue, and it's little simpler. BTW, it speaks on 21 languages, even on Chinese :).
