1. set thread priority of threads produced with kernel_thread() in kernel mode

2. kernel mode thread creation and priority setting

i was experimenting with creating a kernel mode thread
and setting its priority to the maximum since i want the thread to get the
max time slice. i tried the following approach ---

1) used PsCreateSystemThread to create a thread in the system process

2) the driver init routine then waits for the thread to initialize and when
the thread has gotten its PKTHREAD variable after a call to
KeGetCurrentThread

3) the driver init routine then uses this PKTHREAD to set priority using
KeSetThreadPriority and the HIGHEST_PRIORITY flag.

well, this is what i did, but when i call KeSetThreadPriority my system
locks up :(. i want to know what i am doing wrong and would like a solution
so that my thread can run with the highest priority in the system getting
most of the time slice.

thanks
