DPC CPU Usage - Windows 7 vs Windows Embedded Standard 7

DPC CPU Usage - Windows 7 vs Windows Embedded Standard 7

Hi,

I work for a small company which sells computer vision equipment. They have an industrial camera connected to the LAN port on a PC. We are currently using Windows 7.
Recently, I have tested our software with Windows Embedded Standard 7, and I have noticed a decrease in the performance of the equipment. In order to find out the problem, I have used Windows Performance Toolkit. I have noticed that, with Windows 7, the DPC CPU Usage is shared between the 2 cores of the CPU, but with the Embedded edition, all the DPCs are managed by the same core. I guess that this is what is causing the decrease in the performance.
The problem is, that I do not know how to change this. Is there any setting, command or something, that could help me?

Thanks in advenced

Prio, will do the trick, ive used it to set process priority of one core, two cores, set Set affinity, I/O priority on my D90D7 TC's. I had to install SCCM agents and there were killing my TC so this is what I came up with, it as well as some other tasks get one processor and low prorities on everything, this helped my boot times by 30\40 sec.
