3: Find a process called "Engine.exe", right click it and scroll to Set Priority, and then click AboveNormal/High.
4: Find a process called "BlackCipher.aes" (or something like that), right click it and scroll to Set Priority, and then click Low.
5: Find a process called "explorer.exe", rick click it and press End Process. You'll see your taskbar and desktop icons disappear, but you won't need them in game.
When you're done playing...
1: Press Control+Alt+Del to bring up the Task Manager.
2: Click File > New Task (Run...), and type in "explorer.exe" (minus the quotes, of course).
Doing that seems to help me.
