Nah, all is well now...I used the following shortcut command to always start WWP in high priority, which eliminated the problem, as it theoretically gives more focus on the game.
"C:\WINDOWS\System32\cmd.exe /c start "WWP" /high B:\Shared\games\WWP\wwp.exe"
So, to reiterate, right click on your WWP shortcut, click "properties", go into the target box and type:
"C:\WINDOWS\System32\cmd.exe /c start "WWP" /high
Then, after that type the path to your WWP.exe (ie what was in the startup box before)

Might be an idea to explain how to undo this as well, just in case.

Ehrm...
Remove the line of code in front of the path to your wwp.exe? :rolleyes:

An obvious one :D.
Also- A few suggestions before doing so:
1. Turn off Aero. (Win 98 style appearance is recommended)
2. The maximum amount of other programs that can run at such high priorities are 1 (not including WWP) [do this in task manager]
3. Unless you have a super-powerful CPU, or something like that, set WWP to no higher priority than "high", my laptop froze instantaneously when I tried to set WWP to "realtime".
