And, now i see why everyone thought it was dumb.
I didn't mean to Warm UP, i meant it to go from 15% Processor State to 100% or even 90%. Thats what i meant by "Warming Up"

You want it in the lower %. That is the amount of CPU power used, and the lower the better.

But when mine is around 90% things go really fast.
And when lower, slower.
Don't you mean like, the lower it saves more power?

Thanks,
Alex.

No. Its percentage of CPU usage. If it is at 100%, it is using all its available power, and only happens when you need the power. Such as running a heavy game or loading something. If it is at 10%, that would be more idle. It is not using much, and it maintaining the system.

Oh, now i see.
So those settings on the Advanced Power Settings aren't Processor Speed settings but the maximum amount of load.
Ok, 1, 2 and 3 solved. Only one to go :) (the .bat file)

Thanks for all the support you've gave me.. thanks a lot!

So, anyone know how to do a optional bat file?

Like, press 1 for DX10 Game, and press 2 for DX9 Game (Shortcut)

Sorry, not skilled enough in that kind of thing to give any help with that.

reading all things again... more and more it seems that you have a TROJAN or somewhere.. that is hogging CPU and .
my god 80% or more is unheard of on my system. 3GB memory on 4600 AMD cpu, and only time i get over 30 to 35% is DEFRAG or TOTAL SCAN for BAD BOYS.

WOWOwow

My memory usage is always at 30%.
My Processor, i don't know how to check.

Well about the Bat file:
I Did it, heres it the code:

Code:

@echo off
:menu
echo Type C to open Assassins Creed on DX9
echo Type E to open Assassins Creed on DX10
echo.
set /p option=Option:
if %option%==c goto start
if %option%==C goto start
if %option%==e goto open
if %option%==E goto open
if %option%==* goto error
goto error
:start
cd /d "C:\Games\Assassin's Creed"
start /realtime AssassinsCreed_Dx9.exe
:open
cd /d "C:\Games\Assassin's Creed"
start /realtime AssassinsCreed_Dx10.exe
pause
exit
:exit
cls
exit
:error
pause

Alright, two things here.

First: You can check CPU usage in the Task Manager or in the Performance manager. Watch this for a while. Let your system be idle, and tell us what the % is at that level.

Second: For Assassin's Creed, I believe there are two shortcuts for it: One for DX10, one for DX9. They should be in the program folder, and you could just place them on the desktop. You could set Macros for them to start with 1 or 2. Beyond that, I can't help with the script.
