Permanent Fix for False "Doesn't meet minimum" message

-- Somehow my previous discussion was deleted when I tried to update the subject with new paste links (the old ones expired) so here it is again --

I created a scheduled task that runs at startup to
fix the minimum requirement for CPU everytime you logon to your PC. It
updates your CPU to be an "Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770K CPU @
3.90GHz" which is above the minimum. I did this because there is no way
to disable the message and it is HIGHLY annoying since I have a 3770K
overclocked which is pound for pound a superior processor to the i5
minimum. Alternatively if you don't feel comfortable with a task you can
just grab the Two.bat file below and run it instead (as admin of
course). I've provided these at a paste site so you can see the source
for yourself and decide if it is safe to run. Make sure when you save
these pastes to just save the contents, not the webpage (that would be
silly). The task that this creates runs as NT Authority by the way.

1) Save this http://pastebin.com/JwUxfMvy as One.bat on your homedrive (usually C:)

2) Save this http://pastebin.com/q8DJdQaQ as Two.bat on your homedrive (usually C:)

3) Save this http://pastebin.com/dGKviHtH as OculusTask.xml on your homedrive (usually C:)

Once that is done all you need to do is right-click on One.bat, run
it as Administrator and it will do all the magic for you, and now
every-time you login to your PC (with any account) an administrator task
will execute the fix, thus permanent.

Good luck and see you in the Rift!

Is this changing registry entries?  Will this have negative effects on non oculus rift apps?  It won't mess with solidworks or photoshop right?

It won't affect CAD/Photoshop/Premier (I use all 4 fine)

For anyone else having issues I'd ask you to reread. Sorry but I'm not in this to do tech support, the scripts are very easy to use. You can get the pre-configured scripts in a .zip if you want from my reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/oculus/comments/4kangn/cpu_minimum_spec_not_met_message_fix/
