I am trying to run RA3 and I am stuck at this point point of the game where the game crashes, you can follow up the post at.

It is the one called I think I finished the game.

Well anyway I have come to the conclusion that this may be an issue related to Dual/Quad core.

Any help is appreciated.

- It's possible with the taskset command. Run wine like this:

taskset -c 0 wine program_name.exe

- to get rid of debug-messages:

WINEDEBUG=-all taskset -c 0 wine program_name.exe

- The "-c 0" part will set cpu affinity for core 1, "-c 1" would set it for core 2, etc. See "man taskset" for some more info.

Good luck.
