About a week ago. I started having problems with WoW gaining a "foreground" type focus after i alt+tab.. This problem is only happening while using WinEQ.
I use MBM5 to show temp/cpu usage in the sys tray. Normally with WoW running, Firefox with 5-6 tabs of webpages. My CPU usage is around 75-85. And 90+ when i zone or in a heavy population area. With normal FPS around 55-60 in IF/Org.
And now i have a problem with WinEQ/WoW not retaining the full "foreground" focus. After the alt+tab or change focus. When i go back into game. CPU usage is around 20-25 and fps drops to 25-30. But its not even a real 25-30. It seems more choppy.
Was wondering if you have ever heard of this problem. Or maybe have an idea about how to fix it.
Sometimes i can get it to regain focus. By minimizing WoW and letting it pop is self back up. And sometimes it just seems to fix itself.
CPU Focus Problem (WoW)
Moderators: Lavish Software Team, Moderators
Well after trying several differant ideas, I come up with a blank.
This problem on exsists with WinEQ. If i load normal WoW. In any of the differant Modes (Full Screen, Windowed, Full Screen Windowed). It works perfectly fine.
Thing that does not make sence, is that i cannot do anything to make it do it. Or stop it from doing it.
Below is my sysinfo.

Well, I have no idea why you would have this problem, particularly as a Lite user. If you were a Pro user, I would suggest disabling the FPS Limiter in the WinEQ 2 preferences, under World of Warcraft, Framerate. But there is no limiting for Lite users. Are you logging into the forums as a Lite user and using the software as a Pro user?
. I hate playing wow w/o wineq.
