ISBoxer CPU throttling - issues

Hi guys,

I've been multiboxing 5 clients of wow classic on a 5+ years old PC for quite a while and I really enjoy it. I wanted to take my multiboxing to the next level and decided to add an extra 5 clients, so 10 in total. With this old PC 5 clients worked smooth/okay whilst 10 clients was definitely stretching it and as I felt I was due to an PC upgrade I recently went ahead and ordered a brand new PC, something that I obviously havn't done in 5 years. This is what I got:

Gainward GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER Phoenix
AMD Ryzen 9 3900X
Corsair Hydro Series H55 CPU Kylare
Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO DDR4 2933MHz 32GB
Samsung PM991 512GB M.2 SSD
Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" HDD
ASUS ROG Strix B450-F GAMING, Socket-AM4
Corsair TX550M, 550W PSU

Everything on it is running nice and smooth, every core is running at 4200 MHz. But when I open ISBoxer to play WoW Classic I get this error as soon as I run the sw. Is anyone familiar with this error? (Screen shot: https://gyazo.com/9c53bcc9433ecb2eb75b8e4982f5019b )

Here is from the ISboxer wiki:

Here is from my options on my PC:

Bottom line the result of ISBoxer identifying my CPU to 0 MHz is that I have massive lags when I launch a character set, the background clients are running at 1 fps which makes it unplayable (obv. the settings I put is to run 30 fps on background clients). I have tinkered around with various settings within ISBoxer but the issue is the one I posted above.

I'm really lost what to do. I felt I spend a good amount of money to be able to play 10 clients smooth and nicely but right now I cannot do it at all. I'm not the most techie guy and I really do appreciate any help on this issue. I'm so excited to get multiboxing the 10 clients.

Best Regards,
Ax

Ignore it. Its a problem with the underlying Windows API that is used to get the CPU speed.

Ok. I'm glad to hear the issue is not deeper than that or anything individual for me. I will ignore the box.

However, my background clients are stuck at 1 fps and it's unplayable, any tips or trix?
