I currently have a 939 A64 3000+ single core system. I own a Nikon film scanner that scans 35mm slides and when it's operating each scan, my CPU utilization goes to 100%. I cannot use my computer for any other tasks because the computer slows to a halt during each scan.
I was wondering if a Core 2 Duo processor would allow the scanner to 100% utilize one core and allow me to still use the computer for simple tasks like browsing the web and responding to e-mail with the other. Does dual core allow this?
