Hello,
I have recently learned that Vista has an I/O priority system in place. This interests me greatly, as I often run several programs that all work with large files, causing my normal programs (Say, my media player) to hiccup and have problems. My question is this: Is it possible to change the I/O priority of an application -without- having the application specifically written to use the system? I am interested in writing a utility that would be able to change the I/O priority of applications in a manner similar to Task Manager being able to change process priorities. Is this possible? Any links to information about how to go about this or more appropriate newsgroups are very much appreciated. |
