Function Reference

_WinAPI_WaitSystemIdle

Wait both Processor and Disk IO are idle.

#include <WinAPISys.au3>
_WinAPI_WaitSystemIdle ( $bToolTip = False, $nMaxLoops = Default, $fSystemPercent = 1.0, $fIOPercent = 1.0, $iRefresh = 2 )

Parameters

$bToolTip to display a tooltip of the Processor or Disk IO usage (Default no display)
$nMaxLoops max number of evaluations (Default no Check)
$fSystemPercent the counting will stop if the current Processor usage is below.
$fIOPercent the counting will stop if the current Disk IO usage is below.
$iRefresh the time between to evaluation (Default = 2 Sec).

Return Value

Success: the number of time Processor usage was above $fSystemPercent ($fSystemPercent Default is 1.0).
@extended is the number of time Disk IO usage was above $fIOPercent ($fIOPercent Default is 1.0).
Failure: Sets the @error flag if number of evaluation exceed.

Remarks

During the Loops the User inputs are disabled : BlockInput($BI_DISABLE).
Unless strange behavior evaluation for Disk IO Usage percent will not be effective.
