Is there any way to write a program that fakes a third core on a dual core CPU that runs at like 10 Mhz (1/300 of the power of a real core) and set the affinity of the miner to it?
How did you get out of the newbie section exactly?
If this is a newbie question we need more newbies. It's a brilliant idea and there already exist a program for Linux called CPU limit that does what he needs, just not quite the way he suggests.
