Damn..you're right. While trying to find out which mirror would actually let me DOWNLOAD it, I didn't see that there were 2 versions

NOW..the question is,

Is there a way to get rid of the HighPriority mode of the new v1.06 exe while running the anti-securom loader?

I have to ctl-alt-delete while the game is loading up and quickly try to change the process' priority to Normal...otherwise I cannot use my mouse or keyboard once I'm in-game.

You can create a Batch as your shortcut and call the program.. Like this
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

START ["title"] [/Dpath] [/I] [/MIN] [/MAX] [/SEPARATE | /SHARED]
[/LOW | /NORMAL | /HIGH | /REALTIME | /ABOVENORMAL | /BELOWNORMAL]
[/WAIT] [/B] [command/program]
[parameters]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Or I believe These flags will work in the existing Shortcut for the game..

If you know VB Script use that..

Yes, but you have to load graw.exe v1.06 with the anti-securom loader (asr.exe)...so how do you create a batch file that does THAT

the batch file would contain this line :

START /NORMAL "c:\asr\asr.exe" "c:\graw\graw.exe"


Replace "C:\asr" and "c:\graw" with the paths to both executables and it should work. To make a batch file, just paste the line above in a new textfile then rename the extension of that file to .bat

Nope..that didn't work

I get the 'conflict with emulation software detected' error and I also noticed that graw.exe was still running in high priority mode.

When I try to add the -r command to that batch file, it stops working saying 'windows cannot find -r'.

You can put the .bat file anywhere and run it.

but it didn't work for me.

The following used as a shortcut DOES work, but the priority mode switch doesn't take effect.

"D:\Games\Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter\asr.exe" -r "D:\Games\Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter\graw.exe" /NORMAL

Of course, it doesn't change the priority mode because only the START command has this "/normal" etc. command line options; ASR.EXE doesn't. You cannot override ASR.EXE's behavior with settings that are processed before ASR.EXE is executed, unless ASR.EXE processes/honors them itself!
