How to change the priority of a running process?


Hi,
 
 It seems the 'snice' command is not working right, i tried this:
 
    snice +20 bash
    snice +20 -p 2448   ;   where 2448 is the bash's pid reported by
'ps'
 
and the priority showed by 'top' is always the same (8) before and after
the snice.
 
Is there another way of change the priority of a running cygwin process
besides using the 'snice' command?
 
Any help apreciated,
