I’ve built my own little radio station that broadcasts throughout the house (and neighbours) courtesy of one of those DSE USB transmitters .

Now, I’m absolutely wrapped in the performance of the transmitter and for the most part Windows Media Player 9 .

However, sometimes I need to use the computer for other things like :horrified Word, XL, Windows Explorer, Internet Explorer (Begging for advise from you guys) ;) and the whole thing turns to static .

Not good enough for Radio BMC! :mad:

OK, I figure somewhere in the system there is a hierarchy system for resources and Windows Media Player doesn’t figure when it comes to the crunch .

Sooooo, how do I tell everything else Noooooooo, :groan: YOU you wait!!!!!!???????

Yes I know, I make things far too simple~! :)

Don't ask me if it will work or not I've never had reason to play around with those settings before

will allow you to set process levels, but I reckon I'd be careful with this type of tool or lockup city here we come
