CPU Usage data in Vista Home

[willb]

I was reading the guides last night, and saw the topic "How to get the graph data to include CPU usage under Vista ". I did see this data in Windows XP (old system, previous ImgBurn versions).

 

I tried the procedure, but it does not work for Windowas Vista "home" versions. These editions do not include the group policy editor (Gpedit.msc). Therefore, the "local users and groups" item does not appear in the Computer Management console.

 

 

A work around is to right click the ImgBurn short cut, and "run as administrator".

 

Another way is to navigate to the the ImgBurn.exe (C:\program files\ImgBurn), display the properties, and select the compatability tab, then check the "run as administrator" tab, click apply, and OK. Depending on the circumstances, there is also an option for "all users".

 

The only problem here is an administrative password is (may be) required.
