    I’m not sure it’s a problem. On my laptop, pIllusion uses 90%+ cpu when the
    preview is animating a complex super emitter. If the preview window isn’t
    doing anything, it uses 0%. Simple emitters use less cpu % (some are only
    5% or so).

    So a dual cpu machine would max out at 50% since it’s only using a single
    cpu (as I understand it).

    I wouldn’t reinstall Windows.
