How can I change the priority of a program in Win98? I like to run folding simultaneously with some other programs, but some of them eat cycles and make folding run really slow.

I don't think you can do anything. it only slows down Seti when I watch movies on morpheus, cuz it uses CPU cycles
Eh, I don't think you should bring Morpheus up or any type of file sharing since last time I got a warning for replying to it. :(

What?!?!? I didn't mention Morpheus! I'd never do anything like that.;)
There is a freeware app that gives you some control over priority in Win9x: I started using it tonight to try and improve my Folding times.
I am not sure just how effective it is yet, but it seems to have added a few cycles to my folding client.
I'll see if I can come up with a link and post it in here.

Thanks roger!
RAM isn't an option because the comp isn't mine and my parents aren't into dumping $$ into a comp unnecessarily (the RAM would only help folding).
