Hello,

Is there any way to permanently
set the priority to process / programs.

for example, I have a tv tuner card
installed for vista 32.

each time I start the program
to watch tv on my screen,

I find a need to set it's priority
high from a priority of normal
via the task manager

its somewhat annoying to
nurse made vista ultimate
in this manner.

is there a way to set the
process to "high"?

otherwise, "normal" priority
allows the image to be
interrupted.

thanks for any ideas.

You can do this with the "start" command eg

start "" /high "notepad.exe"

thanks for the tip.

I think it requires a
batch file to run the
start command.

basically this program
needs to initiate first

"D:\Program Files\KWorld Multimedia\HyperMedia\DTVR\MainCenter.exe"

then select tv, radion,
etc from the options
which I would choose:

atvr1.exe

atvr1.exe doesn't
engage by iteself,
unfortuantely.

maybe I can find some
time in the future to
practice the coding
for the above

but kind of tied up with
politics and the news,

hence my need to
see the action and
replay it while typing
emails.

too bad the priority
cant simply be set
via its properties and
or services.
