Right now I have 4 cpu's and I set it up to run all 4 but now it runs too hot even with fans on it. I set it to run just 50% of them but still all 4 still fire up. where do I set it so it just runs 2 ? |

If using local preferences, make sure to set this there. Local preferences override web preferences. Also set Activity to run based on preferences. When set to run always, preferences are ignored. |
