how do i change SETI priority on startup?

[TuffGuy]

i know that i can change it with 'taskinfo' once i'm in windows. i want to know if there's a way to add switches to it to automatically change seti's priority when 'taskinfo' is started. or if there's any other way to do this.

Setidriver lets you select the priority of the command-line client, it also allows you to cache WU's.

Get it off this page.

Hi TuffGuy!

Have you noticed me approaching?? HeHe!!

Anyway, I run SetiDriver and it allows me to set the priority of the client to High, Normal or Low. I keep it at normal and it always runs in the background. Seldom notice it while I'm running other programs. I'm not sure what you are referring to as "taskinfo", but if you are not caching WU's then you need to look at SetiDriver.

I tried sending this much earlier today, but this thing was down!

thanks guys.

yeah, i've seen you approaching... how could i not? bastard...
how many computers do you have running seti?

i'm using setiqueue right now. i'm waiting for some parts to arrive to network my second computer. i don't think that setidriver works as a host. does it?

You could have it set up like this.
seti.exe >> Seti driver >> SetiQ >> Seti@home

damn... how come you're not running 3.0 cli? it's about 12% faster, and at your rate that would translate to a few extra units each day.

I am...I created the page before cli 3.0 was released. I need to collect the stats and update it. And it is faster!!!
