Does anyone know how to set the priority of a thread in code? With the help of a framework customer, I've found out that some background tasks can interefere with BlitzMax but if the priority of the thread is pushed up to "high", the interference stops. I'd really like the option to do this with code and wondered if anyone has any experience of this? Also does such code work in 98/Me or is it Win 2000/XP only I wonder?

thanks in advance...
