High CPU / PC crashes when running Multiple clients

I tried searching the forum over and over for "high CPU" capitalized and lower-cased and all different ways and nothing was coming up. Anyways I have two PC's and when I run 5 or more clients at a time on one, my CPU is spiked at 100% and it will lockup without any BSOD or anything. When I do the same on my other PC the CPU load is very low. I am running the same script and clients on both PC's.

The weird thing is, the PC that has 100% CPU has better specs than the working one. For the broken PC I have tried a new MOBO, CPU, known working RAM, removed all other components, CPU is NOT overheating, pretty much everything except for a new OS and power supply. Could this be an issue with the OS? For the script I am using it has a "disable graphics" option and it works just fine on my working PC.

I am running out of options here and im not sure what else it could be. The only other difference is my working PC is using Windows 7 and the non working one is using Windows 10. I have tried a fresh install of Windows 10 and still having issues. I am not sure the OS would cause a PC to spike up in CPU and then freeze up.

Has this ever happened with anyone else? What should I try next to get this resolved? Also, I am sorry if this is the wrong thread but I figured since its GW specific I would give this thread a shot. I will also try the PC support thread just in case.

Sorry to inform you but its windows 10... or at least the one your using... I recomend downloading an early stripped down version of win 10 from a torrent and using that if u must use win 10....

My best recomendation would be to use win 7 or 8 again with no added programs and features if you want to run 5 or more accounts at a time... another option would be to run a sandbox/virtual box for every two accounts for isolation and protection... and to seperate the processes more cleanly... but u have to do what makes you the happiest... good luck and let us know what you come up with buddy!

turn vsync off and limit your frame rates to 60. and then go from there
