Hi Guy’s – Here’s the L4d CPU Fix!
I recently in another post talked about my problem with game lag, I did temporarily fix it by cleaning my pc out from tons of dust which was making it overheat. Since then it started again and I found a solution which at least makes the game playable.
My cpu is a AMD 6000+ 3.01 GhZ & and I run it with an 8800 GTX.
The Fix which worked for me and is still working!
Load up the game, which thankfuly loads fine, go to options, video, advanced settings, find multicore rendering & turn it off ‘disabled’.

Conclusion
Now this definatley fixed my CPU spikes. Game performance was unaffected with this disabled. Before I did this, I started a game, then opened up task manager, and could see my cpu spiking when I got huge game lag. from levels of 20% to 99% hence the huge lag.
Reasons for this?
Well all I can come up with is that I have a hardware issue, but I’m yet to have any problems with any other software. Otherwise it would deem that it is an incompatibility with my hardware setup and the game itself. Not uncommon, and perhaps valve will release a patch. Until now at least there is a temporary fix.
