I'm using Matlab daily and I am using it in Real Time and I have some isues, so my friend told me how to put it on Real Time priorty in Task Manager...
I tried but I god error message: Unable to set Realtime priority. The priority was set to High instead...
I just mooved from WinXP to Win7 with my software.My software needs to have real time response to I/O so it makes busy-wait in one thread (wich has affinity to run on one CPU).The result is 100% CPU on one of the cores and 0 CPU for others, in WinXP it worked just fine.In win7 the system freezes. The software is a console software (for Windows program it beaves a bit diffrent. only if the main thread make busy-wait without peeking messages it freezes)
I'm running a few gameservers myself on Windows Server 2008 R2 but I'm wondering if it's possible to make my system recognize that the process was ran earlier, and it'll apply the correct affinity and priority.
The problem is that I used to use ProcessLasso, but after 40 days of uptime (and then a restart) I'm not able to run the program without purchasing it.
I have a game (Battlefield 2) that has certain issues under Windows 7. In online gaming, apparently the punkbuster fails to communicate in the right way until the process bf2.exe is set to priority "lower than normal" in the task manager. this means you have to start the game, alt+tab back to the desktop, lower the priority in the taskmanager and then start playing.this procedure has to be repeated everytime i want to play with punkbuster (so every time )And yes, I browsed all, and I mean ALL, forums of BF2 and Punkbuster to fix this issue, so far this is the only solution that makes online gaming possible.how to lower the priority of a process permanently and automatically every time the process starts up?
I had to reinstall Win 7 today. I then installed BitDefender Free 2009 and when I discovered that there was no real time component, I uninstalled with Revo Uninstaller Pro. When I rebooted, nothing appeared on my screen. I checked the display by connecting it to me laptop and it is fine. How do I solve this?
i have loaded windows 7 but having a problem of the taskbar thumbnail preview it does not show the live preview instead it shows the title of the window open earlier it showed the preview.
I've been doing a lot of research on this and I know this topic has been covered a million times, so please bear with me. I'm specifically wondering about the "file-optimization" features in third party defraggers such as Diskeeper or Iobit Smart Defrag (which I use). I know that Microsoft has refined their own defragger, but it seems to me that it has no obvious file optimization and it of course does not have real-time defragging. I've been using Iobit Smart Defrag for a long time and it seems to do a good job of keeping my computer in shape. But, if the Windows 7 defrag works good enough, I'd prefer to just use that and get rid of Smart Defrag to free up CPU and RAM. I'd obviously lose out on the real-time scanning, file optimization, and the boot time scan that Iobit just added to their latest release. But, are these features really necessary for fast, clean performance of Windows 7? Or are these just gimics from third party companies to get me to purchase their software.
You know how when you make changes inside a folder or any directory under windows 7 using explorer, updates, new files downloaded, any changes will reflect in that folder listing/view instanteously, without you having to hit the "refesh" button on the address bar to see what changes took place in that folder.My problem is with the new Fantom Drive ext USB HDD I bought. Anything I do inside that drives folder hiearchy of files. Like downloading new files from firefox, or unraring a bunch of archives; all changes will not show until I go manually hit the folder refresh button every time.Why is that not automatic? Like it is with my main internal C Drive, and my other ext usb LaCie HDD.
I have a problem with my computer that I cannot fix, I recently bought the AverTV Capture HD and plugged it into 1 of my free pci-express slots.Now my computer takes like 20 extra seconds to boot to desktop, I replaced the card to another PCI-Express slot but the problem persists, when I remove the card it boots like before, with no IDLE.My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-x58-UD5, latest Bios, latest drivers etc...I don't know if it's the card or maybe the motherboard or just Windows 7.This is a Winbootinfo screen to show you the IDLE time between the bios screen-Windows 7 booting screen and @desktop.
I am getting this error all the time with Windows 7. I open a text file I want to edit, then go to save my changes and I get this error:"The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process".I have full admin rights, running Win7 Ultimate x64 SP1. From a bit of research I have seen where many others have been experiencing this problem or something similar too. The only "fix" (that doesn't work all the time) is to close explorer.exe and then restart it to "release the handle"? Anyway, this is not acceptable for all the money and time I spent upgrading/configuring this new OS from XP -where I never had this problem- and seriously cuts down my productivity.Has Microsoft even acknowledged this as a bug yet? I can duplicate this scenario the second or third time I try to edit/save/delete a text file and I know that explorer.exe is the problem or a big part of it in any case. I don't want to go back to XP x64 but having to deal with this headache 10-20 times a day is just too much to ask.The file here is a game's map script & has to be saved to a .pk3 and then loaded into the program's root before it can run so i know othing else is running the file. No apps running in taskmngr either.
New dell n7110/win7sp1x64.At startup on new machine from dell, process explorer (procexp64.exe) lists 81 processes running (seems like way too many - compared to xp with maybe 25 at startup). But which processes I can turn off is a question for another day. OK, read carefully, at least 15 processes in PE show " Path: error opening process". PID, CPU, Private Bytes, and working set columns are shown for these "problem" processes, but nothing after that, ie, description, company name etc. For all other listed running processes (with known paths), all info is shown in all columns. The problem processes include some important ones, services, crss, ism, wininit, winlogon, that must to be working for the computer to work, and everything seems to be working properly, and no cpu spikes or other weird stuff is happening. Right clicking properties on these problem processes, properties window pops up as normal, but shows "version: n/a, build: n/a, path: error opening process, no command line, no current directory, autostart location: n/a, Parent: non existent process (708), user: access denied. Again, this info can not be correct since the computer is working. And then, after a few minutes, another window pops up and says PE has stopped working, and closes the program. Now, if this was the whole story, I would go to sysinternals with this, but read on... Task manager running simultaneously with PE lists 83 processes running, more processes than PE, and also ~5 different processes than PE, and PE lists some processes running that TM doesn't list. So PE and TM show different running processes at the same time. How can that be? For the processes that PE shows "error opening", e.g., crss, etc., when I click properties in TM for the same process, sometimes I get the usual/normal pop-up window listing the path, and all the other data as normal, suggesting the process is working properly. But sometimes when I click properties in TM for the processes that PE shows "error opening", I get no pop-up at all, nothing for that process. So, IMO, it's not just a PE glitch, something is actually wrong here. This is a new machine, with PE the only 3rd party installation. I have installed several dell driver updates, but this problem occurred before I installed them. Also, remember PE and TM simultaneously list some different running processes and TM also fails to show paths, etc.
I basically copied 276 GB from my hard drive to another external backup drive that is connected via eSATA on my computer. My motherboard and the hard drive support SATA II. File transfer took, I don't know how long I'm guessing 1 1/2 hours.
During the file transfer, my whole system halted to a crawl, well, worse than that. According to my resource manager, the CPU usage wasn't too high, and the RAM usage was 100%, with 15%-25% of my memory being used for "Standby" memory. The Disk usage was 100%. I was unable to open or close applications while the file transfer was in progress. I couldn't even type.
Is there a way to set priority while you're doing file transfers, thus leaving resources open to still use your computer?
I recently have installed and uninstalled apache server in order to make it work, now I use XAMPP which SUPPOSEDLY starts the service manually when opened. However since I have installed it, windows is taking a long time to show the desktop when booting. It says Welcome for a while, then a black screen and finally the desktop is shown.Is there a way to set showing the desktop the number 1 priority ?
Originally I had a small solid-state hard drive on this set up. I added a non-solid-state hard drive later. Recently, my solid-state drive, the C Dr., became too full to upgrade certain software programs such as Dragon NaturallySpeaking. I purchased a second solid-state hard drive.I "mirrored" that second solid-state hard drive. To make sure that Windows was operating appropriately, I rebooted and hit F10. I then showed the new solid-state hard drive. Everything booted perfectly and the new solid-state hard drive was noted as the C Dr.When I rebooted into bios to change the hard drive boot order so that the new second solid-state hard drive would be the first in the priority, when I highlighted it and exited from it,it still showed the original solid-state hard drive as the first hard drive.I have never had this problem before. I now have to go into F10 every time I boot into my computer and highlight the new solid-state hard drive.
I have three different wireless networks I can connect to, but the one Windows connects to first by default is not my first choice. I'd like to reorder the connection priority. Problem is, as you can see, no networks show up in my manage networks control panel! It clear as day shows that there are five choices, but, does not list them for me to prioritize! Is there a setting somewhere I'm missing that will make the networks visible?
I recently ran a memtest86 program to check my ram so I had to change my boot priority to get the program to work. Now it seems I cant change it back. I've changed it and saved it but my cdrom still wants to boot up first. I even reset the bios with no luck.
I have a wireless adapter in my desktop that connects by default on start up. I moved my PC somewhere I can run a cable from the router directly. Now my question is how do I make the Ethernet connection the default /start up connection, besides just taking the wireless adapter out of the pc.
HPE-400f Pavilion has been crashing to black screen with cursor with problems booting windows 7. Was getting BIOHD4 error code, then BIOHD3 -- Warning: No Active Partition. Installed 2 spare hard drives to alleviate crowding but problem continues. In troubleshooting have noticed the boot-up priority order keeps changing, so that the HDD group is not first, and also so the main - OS C: - hard drive is not on top of the list. Correcting these problems allows windows to boot up just fine, but then random crashes or bootup failures continue (constantly).Have taken everything out and reconnected, done a clean install from HP disks (reformatting and wiping the HD), system repair, virus scans, etc., yet problem continues. How can I fix the boot-up routines so the computer keeps them as they should be and doesn't keep rearranging them on its own thereby causing Windows to hang up?

Right before a fresh install of Windows 7, I go into the BIOS and set the boot priority to boot from the CD first. So at what point during, or after, the installation do I go back into the BIOS and set the boot priority to boot from the Hard Drive?
I have an important app running in Excel that takes 7 hours to complete. During that time the focus of the app is somehow diverted to something else in the Windows environment. When this happens the Excel program stops in its tracks until I click on it to give it back the focus. How can I increase the priority of Excel in the scheme of things so that this doesn't happen?
When there is a Restart required after a software upgrade, the BIOS on my system (Win 7/64) will go to an external HDD (I have three for storage and backup). If I force it off and go into the BIOS on startup, it will show any of the other three HDD's in the boot priority. I reset the priority to the correct drive, save and start (repeat this process several times) and finally it will start from the correct HDD. I thought it might be the CMOS battery but with a new battery in place I still ran into this. This system (HP desktop) is less than a year old.
I moved the Users folders from C: to D: one by one using the location tab from the folder properties ...When I finished surprisingly I found that the "Users" folder name became "Desktop" with its icon ... Although in reality it is not !!!! it still has the name Users but shows Desktop ... When I click the path it shows that
Using Remote Desktop I can connect my one Win7 machine to my other Win7 machine.
However I don't see my "real" desktop - by that I mean the remote machine spawns a sort of virtual desktop and shows me that - I can't run the graphic card control panel for instance - and if a monitor is plugged into the remote machine you just see the login screen not what I'm doing.
So is it possible to see the 'real' desktop using Microsoft Remote Desktop? Or do I have to find some other remote control software - like VNC or something like that.

well my first ques is; i purchased a new laptop from a store but i did not ask whether window is real or cracked..so how i should do to know whether it is cracked or real?
when I open Real player to view a picture or videothe picture will open and then real player does not respond and I have to close the program using task manager. I have re-installed the latest RealPlayer and still have the same problem
X64 Windows 7 (full retail) The system is around 3.5yrs old. OS is around the same.
I have been getting quite sporadic and random BSOD's over the past few weeks. The last piece of hardware I installed was 2x2gb sticks of ram which I installed in November 2011.The only real other hardware/software I installed recently was a Logitech webcam, which I uninstalled yesterday but still received an IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL BSOD this morning around ten minutes after powering up.I have received other BSOD errors such as :
I have the Blue Screen Viewer and all the errors point back to NTOSKRNL.exe with various addresses, so they don't tell me much.I have updated the drivers to everything I can think of. I have ran memtest for a long time on all four sticks and then each stick seperately and they passed without any issues.I also ran CHKDSK and that came back with no bad sectors etc.On certain BSOD or freezes, the pc will not want to boot back into Windows straight away. The fans power up, I can feel the HDD whirring, but I get no BEEP and no signal to the two screens I have.
