Batch file
« on: September 10, 2007, 01:44:00 AM »
Hello,
I have to upload many files onto usb sticks (a few thousand  :o) and I would like to do it running the tasks simultaneusly on all the sticks connected to the PC (6 sticks... one on each usb port... I do not want to use hubs).
I see that a standard batch, "completes" each task before starting the next... that way I cant upload them parallely but just one after the other... and that's much slower  :'(.
Any idea?
Thank you very much

I would imagine that you have to open a new command prompt in the batch file with the "start" command and then run the parallel commands from each prompt but I'm not sure how you would indicate which commands would go in which prompts.  Try the "Windows DOS" forum.  I see that there are some people there with great knowledge of batch files.
