Hey Zac,

We are running X!Tandem on a 2 Quadcore CPU server, not under Windows
7, however, but under Ubuntu server 64 bit. We used the spectrum
threads command from X! tandem to increase the number of threads to 8
(http://www.thegpm.org/TANDEM/api/st.html). This allowed full use of
all 8 cores. Maybe you should give it a try with a small file. Don't
set it higher than 4 though, this will slow down searches on your
Quadcore.
