XP process priority using registry....

This question has prolly been asked before, but after a search I coudn't find anything.

Does anyone know how to start a process, through registry with a low priority?

Here's the way I do it.

Open notepad and copy this into it:

cmd /c start /low program_name.exe

Save the file as a .bat file and save it in the same folder as the program....Make a shortcut to it on your desktop....(replace program_name with the actual name of the program you want to set)

Options are:
Low
BelowLow
Normal
AboveNormal
High
