Start rainmeter on low priority fixed affinity (4 netbooks)

Post by praneethdamian »

This is great for netbook users because it keep processor @ a lower %

make a text file including:

Code: Select all

START /low/affinity 1 C:\PROGRA~1\Rainmeter\Rainmeter.exe
(check whether the directory is correct and remove "/affinity 1" if you only have a single core)

rename it to "Rainmeter.bat"

put this in the rainmeter directory (C:\Program Files\Rainmeter)
---------------------------------------------------------------------

make another text file including the following lines:

Code: Select all

Set WinScriptHost = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

Code: Select all

WinScriptHost.Run Chr(34) & "C:\Program Files\Rainmeter\Rainmeter.bat" & Chr(34), 0

Code: Select all

Set WinScriptHost = Nothing
rename it to "Rainmeter.vbs"

place this file on the startup folder
(C:\Users\praneeth\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup)

remove the existing rainmeter.exe from the startup folder or from MSCONFIG
