On a multiprocessor system that is running a 64-bit version of Windows Server 2003, CPU 0 approaches a 100-percent and FLUENT hangs


Running FLUENT on a multiprocessor system that is running a 64-bit version of Windows Server 2003, CPU 0 approaches a 100-percent CPU Usage reading earlier than do the other CPUs on the system. A tool such as Performance Monitor may show that much of the CPU 0 resources are used at the Deferred Procedure Call (DPC) level. You do not receive an error message. After it seems to initialize, it will utilize one processor fully, and the system will completely lock up after five minutes or so.
