Export to avi, CPU not under full load

Problem: I'm exporting to microsoft avi (compression set to "none") from an SD video in Premiere CS3 and my CPU is not under 100% load. However, when I export to "uncompressed avi" all four cores of my CPU are maxed at 100% load. As a result, the "microsoft avi" render is taking 3 times as long as the "uncompressed avi" render.

Question: Can anybody tell me why Premiere isn't maxing out my CPU when rendering to microsoft avi?

Computer specs: q6600 (quad core), 3.5 gigs of ram (XP pro), 7200 rpm SATA hard drives (program, scratch disk, and pagefile on separate drives).

Just got off the phone with tech support and they said that "multi-core is supported for some but not all features" in Premiere Pro CS3. That's lame.
