CPU usage 100% fantastic but weird.

How is that even possible? 105.995% use... vcenter 5.1 ESXi5.1

7-15-2014 11-42-43 AM.png

This can happen with technologies like Intel Turbo Boost, as vCenter will probably not update the dynamic CPU speed.

So when the Turbo comes into action and pushes the frequenzy on the normal fare, vCenter could see more than 100%.

  • Portege R100 - CPU usage 100%

    Hello!

    Everyone knows about this problem?
    My Portege R100 after installing the new copy of Windows XP and directly after the installation of the display driver, Trident (reboot) bizarre behavior.

    Welcome screen goes white on the lower part (when the first yellow line is). Then I have some software problems.

    When to start records search engine, when I update the list of wireless networks and I explore the files by clicking on 'My computer', (this does not happen when I right click on START and 'Explore') displays CPU usage 100% and everything is so slow that I can barely move a cursor.

    Everything goes back to normal once I closed above applications.
    I can install all drivers and all right, but after Trident display it is bad.

    This is the driver I use since I bought the laptop, I do not know that is fine.
    I installed it several times before and I have a few copies of it, which I've already tried so it must be good.

    The cross thing only my mind is a hardware failure.
    Someone of you knows than before?

    Thank you...

    It has nothing to do with your computer - this is the trident driver problem - there is a work - around
    Try changing your display configuration-

    (1) right click on your mouse to the desktop to bring up the display property, and then click Advanced - here, you will see a tab say somethng like 'graphic acceleration.
    (2) reduce the rate of acceleration - move the tab to the left - make sure it is not full
    (3) this trident driver can cause the BONE to redraw the screen whenever you move your mouse with some applications

    If my post is not detail for you
    Try google with the keyword "how to turn off the graphics acceleration in windows xp" - you will get some good instructions

    That will solve your problem!

    Good luck and enjoy your nice laptop!

  • Oh, the irony? High DPC latency with idle CPU - gives more stable, more low-latency DPC CPU usage 100%

    Just like in the title,

    I tried everything, disabling components, elimination of most of my RAM, update BIOS and loading failsafe and optimized defaults, etc. - and one thing I noticed is that Prime95 running x 64 on all hearts eliminates the peaks high in 1.2.0 DPC latency checker. Audio stuttering, what original research for corrections me, brought me to DPC latency checker.

    It's really strange that the 100% CPU usage would cause the DPC latency stabilize (mine hovers around 350-450 microseconds in the full use of the CPU, but in use slowed parameters or moderate apparently something causes a DPC peak at ~ 4100us max).

    Let me know if you figured it out!

  • My CPU usage is at 100%, but the task manager says that nothing is more than using 01%

    Last night, I installed the updates for Windows 7 during the stop, as I normally do. He said there are four updates, and one went by pretty quickly. It seemed to get stuck on the second (even though he probably didn't want to - the blue ORB turned and the dots are moving, so I guess it's to large or slow) for a few minutes, three update took slightly less time and at the time he obtained for the release of four, I was paying attention just because I was so tired.

    In any case, I went to start my laptop (Toshiba Satellite) and on black splash screen "starting windows" with the flag/banner, he said that he needed install/configure 360 some odd updates. I had seen this before, although I do not remember how recently, so I thought nothing of it. I still don't know if it meant something significant.

    Now the problem is that my CPU usage is constantly at 100%, yet when I finally managed to open the Task Manager, NONE of the listed processes use anything more than 1%, and those who fluctuate. I can easily boot into safe mode, and from there, I have disabled the start of the process, such as taskbar support and itunes things google related, but I still boot normally to 100%.

    Any ideas? It would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm going to College next year and I really don't want to worry about finding how to get a new machine.

    Thank you!

    Hi Renae92,

    1. You have security software installed on the computer?
    2. High CPU usage occurs after the boot process?

    Method 1

    As the problem does not persist in safe mode, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    Reset the computer to start as usual

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

    (b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

    (d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails, then I suggest you run the troubleshooter of performance and check if it helps.

  • Portege will extinguish after iTunesphotoprocessor.exe gets the CPU to 100% usage

    Hi all

    I am having a problem with my Toshiba Portege and sync with my iPad2.

    I'm syncing large amount of photos to my iPad, when synchronization progess is at the stage of optimization photos iTunes runs two processes iTunesphotoprocessor.exe and the CPU usage is 100%.

    The Toshiba fan then runs at full speed until the immedialtey of the computer turns off.
    It is not a normal shutdown of Windows 7 64-bit. It's an energetic power loss, while the Toshiba is on a/c.

    I can reproduce the same with my iPhone 4.

    I thought I should use a USB hub with an adapter separated instead, unfortunately, there is no difference.

    It is not only synchronize photos that it occurs also when I sync movies and only iTunes.exe running at 100% CPU usage.
    Which brings me to the conclusion that the iPad draws a lot of power of the Toshiba until the laptop is on its knees.

    I use external drives (not USB powered) and can copy a lot of data without any problem.

    Perhaps worth mentioning that I have improved the Toshiba two months ago for Windows 7 64 bit and installed all the 64-bit drivers found here on the forum with the upgrade of the BIOS.

    Any hint is appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    In my opinion this has nothing to do with the power supply or the power adapter plugged.
    The iTunesphotoprocessor.exe belongs to the iTunes software and in my opinion this software highlights the laptop CPU s that cause automatic shutdown!

    This means that it is not a problem of laptop but the Apple software.
    I m not sure if it s a compatibility issue with 64-bit Windows system, but he s certainly an iTunes problem

    So, in my opinion, you need to reinstall this software to see if that would help
    You can uninstall this software from the system and could clean the registry with CCleaner, it helps to clean the registry
    After that and after new restarts, you can try to install a version compatible 64-bit iTunes maybe it helps

    Hey Malki,

    He run a background process and they need the CPU usage that of normal. Antivirus is running in the background like other tools as well. As far as I know after the installation of recovery the defragmentation tool runs also in the background.

    Interesting to know is what problem you have. I mean usually the CPU usage is not important if you can do everything and computer works correctly.

    You have problems?

  • Satellite A40-231 - 100% CPU usage when any browser works

    Hello
    my laptop is satellite A40-231, I have a problem for days.

    I took a quick glance to the use of the cpu and it increase to 100%, it never decreases. When I close the browser, the CPU usage drops to 15%, which is normal. I thought it might be a virus that internet connection and make things slower. That's why I format my laptop. I deleted all of my hard drive and reformatted. I installed Windows again, but he has not changed. I even installed ubuntu (I thought maybe virus can not work under ubuntu), but it's the same thing. I turn on my laptop and I open a browser and the laptop slows. I have clean the cpu fan it has not helped.

    I tried to solve it for days I could not sleep properly, I'm about to cry :(

    Please help me please.

    Hello

    You have reinstalled Windows using the Toshiba Recovery disk? This drive will restore the settings from the factory with all the drivers and tools so everything should work fine after that.

    In addition this happens with LAN or WLAN connection? You should try it with the other connection.
    Also check your router and update the firmware. Try to disable the encryption, MAC address filtering, etc.

  • Why my svchost.exe process constantly runs at 100% CPU usage?

    Recently, my computer was extremely slow.  I thought that was the cause of a worm or virus but after I used Norton to take care of that my system is still slow right too. When I checked my system process, its display svchost.exe using a massive amount of memory. Therefore, my CPU usage is constantly at 100%.  Is it still the result of a bug? Or do I have to look elsewhere as the source of the problem? Thank you

    It is possible that a recent update of Norton was faulty or caused one conflict with another program on the PC.

    Activity excessive svchost.exe is often linked to one of the following:

    1 resource hog like Norton or McAfee (sad but true)

    2 be linked in Microsoft Update instead of Windows Update

    3. after having been updated for Windows Search 4.0 and its endless reindexing

    4. the presence of malware

    Unless you have uninstalled Norton AND used their removal tool, I doubt you really deleted ALL occurrences of Norton!

    FWIW, I helped a neighbor recently with his performance problem. The culprit in his case was Windws Search 4.0. And since there is no entry in the Control Panel Add / Remove programs to KB940157, I needed to follow the instructions offered by Nepatsfan here:

    http://help.WUGNET.com/Windows/uninstall-Windows-search-Windows-XP-KB940157-ftopict624142.html

  • Svchost.exe causing 100% cpu usage during the update of windows, even when disconnected.

    I recently had to re - install windows xp on a new hard drive for replacement. My version of xp home edition, SP2 OEM installation disc. (This is ith group included IE6)

    Once installed and running, could access windows update.

    Read all the threads associated etc. and installed SP3, disc after downloading microsoft on another pc. Installed after three trys, first two caused various mistakes, but third attempt seems OK!

    I've also updated the IE6 to IE8, as some sites obviously did not work properly with the older browser.

    Now go do the automatic updates, or log for manual updates... BUT!

    During the process, my cpu fan comes on fast and permanently! The CPU usage is showing that 100%, pc slows to crawl, the mouse becomes slow etc.

    This has never happened before on this machine before you reinstall clean, he had already automatically updated to SP3 and went very well, it was some time ago, before the failure of hard drive, and it has never had this problem!

    Only since having to do a cleaning manual update and re - install.

    The culprit seems to be svchost.exe, once it is used by the update, running the cpu at 100% and continues to do so EVEN after stopping the service, until I manually stop with the Task Manager!

    The svchost.exe instance showing a high is use: SYSTEM.

    According to the files of help here, it is a known issue and a fix KB927891 was issued for SP2, but this should NOT be necessary for SP3, and in fact difficulty used to perform anyway under SP3!

    Ideas for a guy to fix?

    I appreciate the support for XP runs out quickly, and after this update of windows will be redundant, but in the meantime it is always useful!

    Also if I turn off the automatic updates, how can I stop this annoying popup warning bubble?... I can't live without updating, but this bubble nag drives you nuts! :)

    OK just a update, now running cool and 100% auto update and manual update... How? I hear you ask...

    Well I had a beer and a reflection and came to the conclusion, it must be 'order' in which I updated the clean installation of XP.

    Origin, I loaded the old OEM disc new hard disk, loaded the drivers etc, then stop at windows update for updated files.

    Who told me my old incompatible browser and suggested an upgrade.

    I downloaded and installed IE8... still no joy, reading the forums comments I downloaded and installed SP3... which SEEMED to work, BUT then all the hassle of cpu to 100% with the automatic update and updated manual on the windows don't update site!

    So I just gritted my teeth, formatted the drive, another OEM of XP Home Edition SP2 installation loaded the drivers, installed a copy saved to SP3 and after restarting, THEN installed a saved copy of IE8 and THEN trotted off the coast to the windows update site... low and behold, it the connection without problem, did a search, and required updates appeared on the screen without delay all 123 of them...! :)

    Did the updates, restarted and everything was fine, updates automatic in market and left the machine, after about 30 minutes appears the yellow shield, and it downloads a couple more update files without problem.

    All this time I followed the via the Task Manager CPU usage and the strange spike waited 100% apartment, it was on average from 5 to 20%!...so a great improvement has this effect, by simply changing the order of the updates installed from the original! SP3 IE before IE8.

    May not work for all have to do a clean install because of the HD failed, but its worked for me, and I am once more a "happy bunny!

    Dave was soon.

  • In "Services.exe" CPU usage increases to 100 percent XP.

    In "Services.exe" CPU usage increases to 100 percent XP. Attempt to disable Load System Services through the system without result Configuration utility, because cpu cannot handle this function before of 'Services' system of pigs. Is there a way to access msconfig. through BACK? Have tried all modes safe mode, same problem.

    I would exercise caution in handling things in the System Configuration utility.  If you disable the thing (s) evil, you could make your problem worse.

    I suggest provide you a little more information on your system, run some scans for malware, then fix what's left more that needs fixing.

    If you see services.exe equips in the Task Manager, suspect malware first, work to eliminate this possibility (with the scans below), then if you still have a problem, we can fix.

    It makes no sense to try to solve problems on a system that could have malicious software on it.

    You can also try to run system restore if you want, but I don't really know, it counts as 'fixing' of the problem.

    Maybe someday the dialog box 'ask a question' forums XP will ask these questions automatically when a new thread is started so I don't have to ask every time.  It might even be possible to solve a problem in a single response when enough information is provided.

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  • CPU usage always 100% after installing Vista SP2

    Hello

    I am currently running A Dell Dimension B110 with 1 GB RAM 256 mb nvidia geforce 6200 (pci), 2.6 ghz celron D and Windows Vista Home Basic SP1.  It works nice and fast.

    That is until I have install SP2.  Then the CPU usage is always 100% when running anything (with the exception of the Windows Explorer), and the pc is running very slowly.  To solve the problem, I went back down to SP1 and everything goes quickly again.

    A few weeks later, I tried again and the same result.  So I returned again back to SP1.

    For future software versions, I need SP2.  Does anyone have advice and/or corrections to this problem?
