Audiodg.exe using up a lot of CPU

I'm proud of me having a system well settled, I removed the 99% of the useless bloatware that is loaded into MSconfig, I disabled all unnecessary update services who have the audacity to create a windows service, I removed things in the party Run from the Windows registry and I disabled the additional bloatware and updates that had been in the Task Scheduler.

That leaves me with a constant of less than 1% CPU usage, of course, he jumps up and down from time to time when apps need but it is idling less than 1%, which was until recently.

Now (I'm guessing after a windows update (thanks so much Microsoft), I this service totally useless, poorly written, called AudioDG.exe after reset is installed it is sitting there, NOTHING do, but consuming a constant 1% of my system resources, while I used my PC, he captured 5%, I tried to close anything that could use his) , Web sites such as YouTube etc, but again, it takes memory.

Since 1982, I have always felt that Microsoft gives its programmers PC that is much too fast, they should work on the slowest PC so that they are encouraged to write effective and lean code

Does anyone know a way I can stunt this fake contender to the throne, if offers a value zero for me, nothing I didn't have before.

I don't know who wrote this sloppy code, but as Jeremy Clarkson, I think they should be removed at dawn and shooting, but I'll settle for a solution.

BTW, I tried all other solutions here on when AudioDG made a Columbine on your CPU processes.

There may be a fix for this. See one of them that applies.

Handle leak occurs in the Audiodg.exe process in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2.

  • audiodg.exe using WAYYY too much CPU...

    A few days ago, I was using my computer as usual, and I noticed that my laptop was running slower than it normally does. I tried to watch several YouTube videos and the video played very choppy and generally slow. I am writing this, this problem is solved, but at the opening of the resources on my laptop monitor, I noticed that 'audiodg.exe' used about 65% of my CPU! When I didn't have any big program running, so I immediately set to find out what it was, only to discover he had something to do with my audio. I have no idea why it uses so much CPU, before that I didn't even know it existed because I have not had any problems with him. I tried several other solutions to this and nothing helped. And so, here I post this question: "Why use so much CPU"audiodg.exe"on my laptop, and what I can do to stop it?

  • Audiodg.exe uses 99% processor

    Audiodg.exe uses 99% of a CPU, even if I'm not playing music, watch video, or do everything related to audio.

    Please don't tell me that disabling audio enhancements is the only solution. (For example: http://technicallyeasy.net/2009/03/fix-audiodgexe-high-cpu-usage/) Disabling application functionality useful because Windows has a problem is no solution.

    And by the way:

    1. No new software installed recently.
    2. No help from resolution of performance problems.
    3. Not solved by a clean boot.
    Did you visit the web site of the manufacturer of the hardware device and download the latest driver for combination of said hardware/OS and install them again?
     
    I suggest you only do this if you do not have.
     
    Let us know if it works.

  • audiodg.exe uses extreme amounts of memory and is a memory leak

    In my version of Win7, I noticed that the audiodg.exe problem since the days of Vista as posted here http://blogs.msdn.com/larryosterman/archive/2007/01/31/what-is-audiodg-exe.aspx have not been resolved to the extent of the audiodg.exe is concerned. I am exceeding 980 mb after that a few hours of computer work on my system and the CPU (3 hearts) gets POUNDED by this process later. Once I have kill the audiodg.exe in my system task manager becomes very fast and catchy as it should be. However, I lose all sound.

    I have a card his Creative Labs X - Fi Xtreme with the latest drivers for Windows 7.

    Why has this file and its inability to free the memory that should not have been treated for Windows 7? allocation of 980 mb on a 4 GB system for this driver file is ridiculous! I don't like how many bells and whistles your soundcard uses, it is an astronomical amount of memory it consumes and refuses to release back to the system.

    ALT-tab between applications once this process is killed becomes as sensitive and night on my system.

    PLEASE FIX THIS FILE!

    I don't buy a preconfigured PC because they never are good imo. I have a Gigabyte mobo, 4 GB of memory Corsair (Dominator), graphics card Sapphire Radeon ATI 3870, Coolermaster HAF 932 case, 720 processor Phenom II AMD and Creative XFi Xtreme card sound w/Windows 7 drivers. All the drivers are always up-to-date for all. No overclocking (yet) done. Windows 7 Pro version version too.

    I'll take a look at this link, but IMO there is a serious issue with the code in the audiodg.exe since Vista process that has not yet been fixed. Some ppl of things on report items is:

    (1) system response extremely slow when alt-tabbing between applications because of the audiodg.exe process. (I've noticed this myself).
    (2) sound recording causes gaps in the audio file created in the same period of 11ms audiodg.exe takes to dump its worker threads. (I have not checked myself that I have no noise, but this gentleman here can attest to this fact here .)
    (3) use of the extremely exorbitant memory and memory leaks the audiodg.exe. (I've noticed myself and he checked with almost 1 GB of memory used on the file audiodg.exe)

    I think your link above can be a good solution for this problem of using memory thank you (unless of course your Creative card uses Dolby Digital Live) to find but other issues (1 and 2) should always be addressed to people who have noticed them on this forum and others. I wll contact creative labs and pin them down on resources from misuse or from the memory of this asap services!

    The related solution will not work if you are using Ventrilo (I have use a lot) so I'll also contact Creative as to what may be a problem with their services and how they interact with the file subsystem audiodg.exe.

  • Audiodg.exe Help!

    When I play games I use Skype to talk with friends. I went the process to see if something was taking up a lot because there was some lag and seen that this file Audiodg.exe used 15-20 on my CPU space. I looked and found some stuff on this subject on early versions of windows, but nothing about Windows 8. Any help?

    PP

    Audiodg can cuase over-reliance on the cpu, especially if several "improvements" (things like surround sound, etc.) are used.  It happens on some machines that do not have a discrete sound card.

    We cannot say whether the 15-20% is a lot because we do not have your system specs.  More information please.

  • My Windows XP SP3 system has a svchost.exe process that has started to use a good bit of CPU - 18 to 30% at idling.

    I've referenced KB 314056 to make a list of "tasks". There are 30 services running on this process.   FWIW, my wife's PC has the same services that runs under a svchost.exe process without a lot of CPU usage. How can I get figure out what service (s) is/is the use of the resource of CP?

    I found the culprit. I run Secunia PSI. The site is at www.secunia.com. When I stop this program the SVChost process falls to zero use. I run the same program on two other PC XP3 Windows without problem.

    I'll follow up with Secunia. Thanks to all who tried to help.

  • SearchFilterHost.exe using 50% + cpu - not a new computer power

    Since yesterday SearchFilterHost.exe uses 50%-90% of my cpu power. I had the current installation of windows on this computer since a year or two ago and the temptation of power today my hard drive.  I tried stopping the service, but he returned after about a minute of it being stopped. This makes it difficult to make my computer work correctly.

    Hello

    Were there any changes (hardware or software) to the computer before the show?

    SearchFilterHost.exe is the process of Windows search. He is involved in indexing, caching, etc.

    Method 1: Disable it. File extension XML to be indexed in Indexing Options and check if the problem is resolved.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/improve-Windows-searches-using-the-index-frequently-asked-questions

    Method 2: Run a full scan of the system using the Microsoft Safety Scanner to eliminate any virus/malware problem.
     
    Note:
    The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  • Flash uses a lot of CPU

    I don't know when this started, but recently whenever I visit Web sites that use some or a lot of Flash, Firefox slows down completely. When I went in my task manager, I saw that FlashPlayerPlugin.exe was using a lot of CPU (109, 396 k to be exact). Actually, there are two open process. In the past I've never seen these before in Task Manager, but now it is a problem. Any ideas?

    Nevermind, I found a solution. It seems that there is a new feature implemented by Flash called Protected Mode. To disable it, you must go to C:\WINDOWS\Macromed\Flash then open a text called mms.cfg file and add the following text: ProtectedMode = 0. To disable.

  • problem with high CPU usage audiodg.exe

    While playing the game, I get a message saying that I raised the CPU usage 99% of the base. This is caused by "audiodg.exe. I tried a few bugs that I found online. I was told that they would not work with my computer. I have a Dell XPS15 second-generation i5. Has anyone experience this problem?

    Hello

    1. what you did to solve the problem?

    audiodg.exe [Windows Audio Device Graph Isolation] file hosts the audio engine for Vista and Window s 7.

    All DSP [Digital Signal Processing] and audio processing is done within this file. Suppliers are able to install their own audio effects and DSP in the audio pipeline, which is then processed by audiodg.exe

    In order to correct the high CPU usage, disable audio enhancements addressed by the file audiodg.exe. To disable the audio improvements, follow these steps:
    a. right click on the speaker in the lower corner icon right.

    b. Select the playback device from the menu. A list of devices should appear on the screen.

    c. double-click the device that has a green check mark. The properties for the device windows should open.

    d. click the improvements at the top.

    e. in the list of improvements, uncheck all the, or check Disable all improvements.

    f. click on the OK button to save your changes and close the window.

    g. click OK to close the devices window of reading.

    I would also say that you use resource monitor to monitor the CPU usage.

    Resource monitor is a tool that allows you to analyze the use of the CPU, disk, network, and memory in real time.

    You can use the performance tab in the Manager of tasks to see how the CPU of your computer is used by Windows and other programs running on your computer.

    Hi Anurakta,

    Rundll32.exe is a Windows system file, but it can also be associated with the Whisper B virus.

    I expect not to be almost all of your central unit using this way. I suggest that you run a full scan on your system.
