While...WEnd Loop

[zeffy]

Alright, I'm running a loop to check if a game is running, as the While loops, but it is using a lot my CPU (>45%). I was thinking maybe something that would check the current status to see if it is running, then based on that, check to see if it's running or not, and if its the same as the current status, just skip it. I've been trying to think of something to do that but i can't come up with anything.. Any ideas?

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    $iv_Pid = ProcessExists("game.exe")
    If $iv_Pid = 0 Then
        GUICtrlSetData($Label5, "The game is not running")
        GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0xFF0000)
    Else
        $ah_Handle = _MemoryOpen($iv_Pid)
        If Not @error Then
            GUICtrlSetData($Label5, "The game is running")
            GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0x008000)
        EndIf
    EndIf
; ...
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Put the following on the line before the Wend to let the script pause a little:

Sleep(10)
