Force Application to use single core on dual core machine

Hi,

I once used a command (via command prompt) that forced an application to use
a single core only (either "core 0" or "core 1") on a dual core machine,
but now I have forgotten that command. Any one got any idea what that
command was and what the format was?

Thanks

You were probably using something like :
start /REALTIME app.exe
