What do you mean with "I could do with a burger"? Try running this program, I think it will be clear what we are talking about.

But 32-bit Windows clearly can, in some cases, run on multiple CPUs. Otherwise, there would be no 32-bit multicore processors.

LOL, I was just commenting on Brian37's remark about hamburger buns.

You'll excuse me if I don't attempt to run your programme.
