Impossible to change the priority of the process in the Task Manager

Ive recently installed x 86 windows 7 RC1 and found that when running of 2 copies of the world of warcraft (dual-boxing) + ventrilo (+ other programs scattered... Vuze / MSN etc.) that the two windows in world of warcraft suffer massively in terms of frequency of frames and responsiveness during the exchange between the windows. Ive also noticed that the system does not seem to allow any time processor, which inturn hurt speech to wind... becoming lag ventrilo and shredded when send all voice data. Ive tried to allocate more time processor for programs, but windows gives me the error "this operation could not be completed, access denied. This did not happen under Beta to my knowledge. I have not tested in safe mode...

Now, I understand the security features of the system and believe that I have all the correct Administrator security privileges, but im still getting this error, even if I run the programs as an administrator, they still suffer small amounts of time processor.

Ive got a system strong enough, so it's not as if there are limited resources - this has me boggled.

Hello, ApolloFury

I'm happy to offer a few suggestions, but you will have to go on Support of Windows 7 forums on the following link for assistance troubleshooting: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/w7itpro

After you open the Task Manager, click on Show processes from all users to ensure that it is run as an administrator. To divide the load, set each instance in its own kernel by click right-click on the process, Set Affinity and make sure only one heart is selected. Select the other core for the second instance. If you have a second hard drive, connecting it the second instance the second hard drive should also increase performance.

Lower your settings at least in the game.

You can also try to choose a basic theme to disable the Aero interface.

If your antivirus scanning on access to files, it can cause too much additional slowdown with largefiles.

I hope this helps.

  • I seem to have in dual processes that run in the Task Manager.

    In the Task Manager, I see the same process running several times.  Example: under user/Admin""(My name as) ","Local Service","Network Service"and"System"." "  These really duplicates and they slow down my system?

    Are they duplicates?  Perhaps.

    They slow down your computer?  Depends on what you're trying to do.  Anything that takes your resources take the pool available for other applications.  However, if you do not run low on resources (your CPU has a lot of horses for what is needed and you're not missing memory for most) - then it probably isn't as much of a downturn as just all of the resources actually get used.  You won't slow until that run out you of resources and try to open something else.

    If you worry about it?  N ° except if you have been compromised (you have a virus, worm, Trojan horse, malware any) and this is what is running - the system is as it should.  You are not running a single-user system - even if you are the only physical user.  Service accounts, etc. are there for the functionality of the machine as a whole.

    You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

    When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

    -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
    -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
    -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

    You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

    1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
    2. click on the System Restore tab.
    3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
    4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
    5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

    You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

    Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

    -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.

    -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:
    -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
    -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
    -Click OK.
    -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
    -Once it's done, click OK, close Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer.

    Every new Internet Explorer window that you open will create a new entry iexplorer.exe in the Task Manager.

    I suggest that you scan the computer for malware or virus infections and check if it helps.
