So I did a thread search in regards to Process Lasso as I keep hearing about this program to find out what I can do to help my ppd output.

I took a screen shot of Process Lasso so you guys can tell me if I did it right or not!



I made changes to FahCore_11.exe, FahCore_a3.exe, hfm.exe, firefox.exe!
FahCore_11.exe is the gpu folding app right? Or is it the folding@home.exe that I need to set it to and like wise for  folding@home-Win32-x86.exe?

My brain is telling me I know that I did it wrong but the other side of me is telling me to ask anyway and fix it if its wrong!

Also any suggestion as far as other programs that I should change.  I don't want to change something that really doesn't need to be messed with.

Thanks guys

    The core is what affinity and priority you want to change.

    If you wanna double check its working CRTL+ALT+DELETE and check processes to see if it set it correct.

    Its working under the task manager but is the processes that I changed the right ones?

    Yea you did it correct. You don't have to worry about folding@home.exe or anything just the cores you did.

    Looks good man.

    Yes, I agree with zerran that your core usage is correct, however, you need to assign this usage under the "rules" heading also.. I see there's nothing there. The rules tell lasso to 'remember" your settings!
    Otherwise when you re-boot your PC you'll have to set the cores again.
    Try it now and you'll see.
    You just have to right click the client in the window to find the sub-menu to do this.
    I would give you more info on the location, but i'm at work.
