how to make Nested for-loops in Vb.net run faster on a powerful computer?

I was trying to code 6-7 nested for-loops using Vb.net and tried to compile it on a i9-9900 computer with 32 GB of memory, but the run time takes too long! I ran the task manager and realized that the application is using only 10% if the CPU and less than 20 mb of memory! so is there a way to speed up the for-loops using more CPU power?

here's the sample of what I was coding:

Dim maxNo As Integer
maxNo = 200

For i = 0 To maxNo
 For k = i To maxNo
  For j = k To maxNo
   For l = j To maxNo
    For m = l To maxNo
     For n = m To maxNo
      For q = n To maxNo
          '......
      Next q
     Next n
    Next m
   Next l
  Next j
 Next k
Next i

Thank you in advance,

tried the code on a high spec. computer, but it still take too much time to complete the loops. I want to take advantage of the powerful PC to run the code faster.

the simple matter is that your code will be single threaded, and your code show shows n^n type of problem.

Been a while since I done combinations and permutations (high school). But this code is WORSE then a n! (factorial) problem.

With just my lowly little laptop, you can in advanced compile, turn off "remove integer overflow checks - that will REALLY speed things up.

So, with your code like this:

    Dim maxNo As Integer
    maxNo = 150

    Dim startTime As DateTime = DateTime.Now
    Dim MyTimeSpan As TimeSpan
    Dim mycount As Long

    For i = 1 To maxNo
        For k = i To maxNo
            For j = k To maxNo
                For l = j To maxNo
                    For m = l To maxNo
                        For n = m To maxNo
                            For q = n To maxNo
                                mycount += 1
                            Next q
                        Next n
                    Next m
                Next l
            Next j
        Next k
    Next i

    MyTimeSpan = DateTime.Now.Subtract(startTime)
    TextBox1.Text = $"Time to run loop = { (MyTimeSpan.TotalMilliseconds) / 1000.0}"
    TextBox2.Text = mycount

To JUST a value of 150?

You are going to run a whopping and "astounding" 389 BILLION (yes, that is correct BILLION loops!!).

I get this:

I also found that running as x86 (forced x32 bit project) seems to run a good deal faster (no need to force the CPU to work with larger x64 bit side codes).

So, your problem?

You have to consider a smaller problem, or maybe perhaps adopt some type of parallal processing. but even with such a approach, your numbers are rather large, and thus you dealing with large amounts of processing.
