Hello all!Can anyone assist me in speeding the speech up in RCv3?I read the sticky by Ray towards the top of the page as I am running XP but it doesn't seem to work correctly. I think that I am doing something wrong in the process.my RCv3 target folder is here "C:Program Filesrcv30rcv3.exe"but when I try and change anything, all it does is turm my shortcut into a DOS prompt.Any assistance would be highly appreciated.Cheers!Simpilot

Simpilot,Assuming you have XP Home try this...C:WINDOWSSYSTEM32cmd.exe /C start /ABOVENORMAL C:Progra~1rcv30rcv3.exeCheers,

Thanks Ray but I have XP Pro. Does that make a difference?Cheers!

The location of CMD.EXE is the key here I think. Can you confirm its location? Once we've done that we shoud hopefully be in business.Cheers,

if you use %comspec% no worries

C:WINDOWSsystem32cmd.exe /C start /HIGH F:rcv30rcv3.exethis is exatcly what I have written and it works good, I have XP-Pro, the icon might change to DOS-Prompt look alike, but it doesn't matter the icon you may always change... just make sure where it says "F:rcv30rcv3.exe" at the end it has to say point to your instalation directory, usually what is already written there.Andy

Thanks for all the replies as I certainly appreciate you all taking the time to assist.At any rate, I still am not having any joy with changing the process preference. Here is what I have tried as my XP is located on drive "D": "D:WINDOWSSYSTEM32cmd.exe /D start /ABOVENORMAL C:Program Filesrcv30rcv3.exe"Ray, where would I find the CMD.EXE at?Cheers!

Simpilot,CMD.EXE should be in the System32 folder. BTW, you have a switch set incorrectly. After cmd.exe it should still say /C not /D. That letter does not refer to a drive letter.Before you do anything else make sure CMD.EXE is located in the System32 folder. If it isn't then do a search on your drive until you find it. I'd be surprised if it wasn't in the System32 folder though.Finally, that 2nd part of the target should be C:Progra~1 - not what you have posted above. Please refer to my earlier message.Cheers,

Thanks a lot Ray and others who have given their input!I have got it figured out!Cheers!

Excellent! Happy flying :-)Cheers,

>Assuming you have XP Home try this... >>C:WINDOWSSYSTEM32cmd.exe /C start /ABOVENORMAL >C:Progra~1rcv30rcv3.exe You're correct- for the record, the fix was the "Progra~1" part. If a user has spaces in the Radar Contact path, the fix posted on sticky post won't work- you have to use the DOS 8.3 filenames (no spaces and all file/folder names no more than 8 characters long).Otherwise, works like a charm!-Simon
