Maybe, you should have a look at the Process.Start() method: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/0w4h05yb.aspx

In the ProcessStartInfo you can pass to this method, you can specify that no window should be opened.

Process.Start(new ProcessStartInfo(pathToExeFile)
{
    CreateNoWindow = true,
    UseShellExecute = false,
    // ...
});
