With the help of a framework customer, I've found out that some background tasks can interefere with BlitzMax
Which ones? If your BlitzMAX application is runing at 100% CPU utilization, you only have one logical processor, and you set the thread priority to high, you can say goodbye to windows too.I seriously doubt the validity of this claim, and if it is valid it's most certainly a BlitzMAX bug that needs fixing ASAP. It's certainly not something you'd want to potentially freeze up a customers PC with.
