I have been running the climateprediction program for a while. 3.53% has been executed. But now the program has got too high priority. There are two process that occupy thc CPU

The process are called:
hadcm3transum_5.15_windows_intelx86.exe

How do I change the priority

Joakim,

I copied your post here and deleted the email address. (Posting one\'s email on any forum is bait for web crawlers and an invitation for spam.) Also, I deleted your duplicate Thread.

To your question. I\'ve heard of priority being changed in Linux but never in Windows. What it the \"too high\" priority? (It is set to the lowest category and the climate program should use any cycles not otherwise used by your machine.)

As to how to change it, that\'s a question for Microsoft, I think.

Joakim,

You machine has 2 processors, and is running 2 models simultaneously. If you want to only one with 1, then you need to go to your account, and General preferences and change this option to only use 1 processor. Then you need to update so it gets the new settings. Then you can either hold on to both, and they will run, one at a time, back and forth, or you can abort the one that has done the least amount of work.

This will then only show as approximately 50% of CPU.

Is this what you are trying to do?
