Re: How to disable OEMIdle

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance


Thanks a lot! So would keeping the line:CPUEnterIdle (dwIdleParam); be
sufficient to keep as the only line in the OEMIdle function?

I think so. You will save a (very) few microseconds.
If you are at this level of optimization, you can even replace the whole
code of OEMIdle by __asm sti __asm hlt.
BTW did you find the cause of your jitter?
