And you have to describe your problem in more details, show the code in question and in general write better question (this one is totally unclear). Thank you.

You can use the Application.Idle event for that:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.application.idle%28v=vs.110%29.aspx[^]

There is really not much else to use. If the system would be too busy your application won't be called that often and certainly isn't idle because the system would switch to another process instead of signal idle.

Good luck!
