    Dear All

    In either Windows or MSDOS, the execution of a program is arranged by the OS.
    In a multi-core CPU which supports 2-4 cores for running programs, the execution of program
    on which core is also arranged by the OS.

    In Windows, I can check the task manager and assign the core(s) on which a task (usuall a .exe program) may run by changing the "CPU-association" (e.g., check box on CPU-0 or CPU-1).

    In DOS prompt, how can I do the same thing? Is there a way to put a command or a parameter under DOS prompt or Windows' CMD so that the execution of a program is bound for a specific core?

    Thanks
