Hi,
I am trying to run NTPrime Version 17.1 as a service
under Windows NT 4.0. I have been having trouble
keeping it running; it seems like the System Idle
Process will take control of the CPU. Things
will run fine for a day or two; NTPrime will
start automatically and when I check the Task Manager
it is using 99% of the CPU. But then I will come back a day or
so later and sometime during that time period the
System Idle Process took control and is running
at 99% CPU usage and NTPrime has 0%.
To get things corrected, I have tried increasing the
priority of NTPrime. This did not help. I also tried
rebooting the machine. This did not help. What did work
was to stop the Prime Service, remove the service,
reboot the machine, reinstall the service, and then start
the service again.
Before I starting running NTPrime, I ran Prime95
under Windows NT on this Dell computer. However, I ran it
manually instead of automatically like I am now.
Is there an explanation why the System Idle Process is taking
control of the CPU?
Thanks in advance for any help.
