Set Affinity Theory
You're trying to influence the scheduler to keep the game active? That's more a function of increasing the default processor priority for the game rather than manipulating affinities. That'll guarantee you a processor while all the background tasks fight among themselves for access to the other. Sort of - you'll obviously get left without a processor if you're idle, and you might be idle in processing terms more often than you'd expect. That doesn't mean you're swapped out and under an overhead to restart.
