ATITool and .bat files

[djBon2112]

I'm trying to get ATITool to execute a windows batch file (to kill some processes and services) with its 3d detection screen. However, they won't be loaded. Anyone have any suggestions?

try putting cmd.exe before the batch file, like:

cmd.exe c:\path\to\bat\file\mybatch.bat

 

[djBon2112]

Alright, I'll try that, thanks for the advice.

It doesn't work, all it does is open CMD but doesn't put in the command. Any other advice?

 

[djBon2112]

Anyone?

cmd.exe /C "c:\path to batch file\filename.bat"

The /C option instructs CMD to run the command and terminate.
Change it to /K if you want it to run the command and stay.

Aah, thank you. Works perfectly!

Would you mind posting the contents of your .bat file for me?

Well, right now it just kills a bunch of programs for me (Folding@Home, uTorrent) and opens FRAPS, I havn't written the rest yet >.< But I will, and I'll post it in here when I'm done!

Here's it so far:

REM *****Close.bat*****

REM Kill Folding@Home because it makes games minimize for whatever reason.
taskkill /IM winFAH.exe /F

REM Kill uTorrent because it hogs network bandwith.
taskkill /IM uTorrent.exe

REM Kill other processes here.

REM Start FRAPS, because I don't want it on the taskbar, but I like it in 3D games.
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Fraps
start fraps.exe /MIN

REM *****Restart.bat*****

REM Restart Folding@Home because the game is done.
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Folding@Home
start winFAH.exe

REM Restart uTorrent because the game is done.
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\uTorrent
start uTorrent.exe

REM Restart other processes here.

REM Kill FRAPS, because I don't want it on the taskbar, but I like it in 3D games.
taskkill /IM fraps.exe /F

Sorry about that, bro... I forgot about the switches and quotes it's been so long since I had to call a dos prompt like that.

Thanks, that's a great idea you got there.
