VS 2005 Using Priority At Computer-chooser?
Oct 14, 2010
We have an assignment at school to make a programm with visual basic that helps the user choose a computer, better give him a choice of 3 PCs.the following code is how far we are with comparing but we are knew to VB so...
Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click
Dim num1, num2, num3, num4, num5 As String
Dim i, j, x As Integer
Dim help(5, 13) As String
[code]....
sol() is a global variable that contains the characteristics of our 14 computers (in our own format, lol) which we then compare to the users input (via combobox). With "ordi" we "format" the choise of the user to match our format. then the grand comparing begins... the first for-loop should select the computers which fit best but we don't know how to "skip" that computer if the comparison doesn't fit (after all, we still want to use that computer for a second or third choise!). After that the next for-loop should pick the best fitting computer as no.1 (going from top priority down).

So I'm making this program that set my game to low priority to prevent less lag, I got it to find if hl.exe is running and if it is, it'll set hl.exe to Low Priority.
I'm using this code but it seem to not work.
If Process.GetProcessesByName("hl").Length = 0 Then
TextBox1.Text = "Waiting for hl.exe"
Else

I am writing an application to gather, display and export system information for use with a Support Dept.Is there a performance difference between using WMI and My.Computer.X.X in VS 2005? Is one method better practice than the other?There are more lines with WMI, but am willing to write more if it's considered good practice over using My.Computer.X.X.

I would like to know how i can make my program execute just as the computer switches on.I tried putting the program in the startup folder but it doesn't execute right as the desktop is loaded and takes about 10 secs to execute.Is there a priority option or something that i am unaware of?

I want to change a program's priority (Not my own) or start it in a different priority. I have a small peice of code and have no idea where to go from there. Here's the small peice of code that I have:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(C:\Srcds)
That's not the exact directory, if it matters.

How can i change a process using only 1 core instead of 2 cores? Also, how can I set different prioritys to each process?As it does not save the settings which i put to each process in taskmanager on restart, i decided to make a program so i could simply click a button so it would change the settings for each process i want.For example:With a simple button click it changes msnmsgr.exe priority to low and makes it use only the 1st core.

Why this: System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.Priority = System.Threading.ThreadPriority.Highest doesn't work? I ran my app and checked it using the task manager process tab. It was checked as normal.

I have a small problem with process priorities (Win Server 2003 Standard, 8 Core, 16GB RAM). My VB.NET 2005 program starts a process like this:
Dim WithEvents proc As New Process
Sub Main()
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "blastx.exe"[code].....
In this case, blastx.exe runs on 4 cores.I would expect that my started process is idle and has 0% CPU usage while the system is under full load (I simulate this with prime95, 8 worker threads) and only runs if there are free resources. But it generates 25% cpu load and prime95 only 75% instead of expected 0%/100%. In the task manager, I can see that my process has the lowest priority and prime95 has the normal priority.

I've got my program running, but when I start it up on Vista, it does so quite slow. I need it to start up faster, I was fiddling around in task manager to check it was actually started and just taking a while, and I noticed it had the priority "BelowNormal", which I'd like to change.
How can I do this from the registry? I've got it starting up, but how do I add a parameter for the process to be started with a higher priority (I.E, normal, abovenormal, high, realtime, etc., I need to test which is suitable).

I have a user control as Binding Navigator control and it has navigation buttons, one of them is Cannel.I put the control in the form every thing works fine, but the problem is the priority of the sequence that the code performs for example:In the Cancel Click event there are some code inside the control it self, and in the form which hold the control I also put some code it goes fine but it first perform the code in the form and then it perform the code in the control.My question is there a way to tell the click event to perform the code inside the control first and then the code inside the holding form, (priority sequence)

I'm planning my road in VB training on my own at home using various books and online resources, like MSDN and book publisher support sites, etc. My initial goal is to become familiar w/the VB 2008 language but then to build upon that w/other skills like perhaps, ASP. Net, ADO .Net and so on. Maybe concentrate on WPF/XAML? My question is, where do I go next after initially learning the VB 2008 language? Not only that, what should my learning "list" look like, assuming it a good idea to "add" to the lot w/other VB skills? What's a "real world" learning plan look like in VB? Which should I consider to be "priority" core VB skills to learn after initially learning the VB language?What is a realistic VB skill portfolio look like?

I'm building a basic text based adventure game (main purpose is to just keep me fresh between programming classes during break, since I have my final VB course next semester and am trying to explore some different concepts and ideas for coding in VB) in Visual Studio 2008. During the character creation process, the user is allowed to choose a portrait to represent their character in game. I've loaded up my resource file with the portraits in question, but there is one thing I'm having some trouble with when it comes to selecting the portraits from that file. Keep in mind, I know how to do this exact thing by loading the pictures up into their own asset folder and grabbing them from there to display on the form. The resource file seems like a more intelligent way of doing it, but I've not used it much in past applications.
So, when the user clicks on the "next" arrow to cycle through the possible portrait choices, I want to change the current image in the picture box from, let's say, image1, to image2. Straight forward and all.I could load all of these images up into an image list, but again, this is all for exploratory purposes, so the following if statement is being used for that purpose only. I plan to code a more effective way of cycling through the images at a later date.
If picCharPort.Image = My.Resources.Image1 Then
picCharPort.Image = My.Resources.Image2
End If
For some reason, I am fully capable of assigning My.Resources.Image1 to picCharPort.Image normally, but when I attempt to switch the image to another image like in this if statement, it creates and error.It essentially does not like the "=" operator being used, so I switched it to Is, and it still doesn't work (however, without displaying an error).(considering, the portrait options change depending on character class/gender, etc)?

Both of the below return the computers name in upper case even when the actual name is in lower case:
MsgBox("Computer name: " & My.Computer.Name)
MsgBox(Environment.MachineName)
Is this true for every windows version? I only use MsgBox when testing.

I am writing a quick program to display the network information of a computer without having to run ipconfig or enter the TCP/IP settings on the network adapaters.I have managed to pull the computer name, local IP address and the external IP address, but I now need to get the default gateway, the subnet mask and the DNS resolvers.I have tried using the registry, but the key differs from computer to computer, so that method has been ruled out.
