mine is high but it seems to make no difference during excessive hd activity. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Seth LeBlond" <Seth@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, February 13, 2004 12:16 PM Subject: RE: cpu usage lost jaws You could always try adjusting the priority of JAWS to "high" from within the task manager. This would ensure that it will be among the last pieces of software to lose performance when your CPU is being maxed out.

Other programs may flip out a little, and of course accessing programs you don't already have open will cause windows to scream at you, but that problem shouldn't happen. On the other hand, windows is probably the quirkiest OS you're gonna find.
