1) Can you list out the programs which are taking lot of CPU usage...
2) Can you post a screenshot of the task manager here

to start with, you should not meddle with critical services like ddhelp, explorer, lsass, rpcss etc...

BTW welcome to the discussion group.

No, there is no way to start a program with a preset priority unless it happens to be a pure DOS program. The only way to change priority is via the Task Manager screen, and as far as Windows is concerned, all processes have equal Normal priorities unless specifically overridden by the user. Of course, make sure you don't set Realtime priorities for load intensive programs, otherwise you run the risk of locking up the system and crashing it.
