CPU utilization in Services.exe increases to 100 percent

computer runs very slowly

Some reasons for the slow pace of the computer:

1. computer has not been maintained - http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Maintenance

2. the computer is infected with the malware - http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

3. the disk is too full. Remove useless stuff, uninstall unused programs. Do not forget to save!
http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Backing_Up

4. flaky third party software. Toolbars and modules are particularly guilty in this area. Uninstall toolbars (Google, Yahoo, ISP brand, etc) and look at what modules are in use in your browser (s).

5. computer has too many unnecessary programs/processes running in the background. Manage your Startup:

For XP - How to troubleshoot using the Msconfig in Windows XP utility - http://support.microsoft.com/?id=310560
The free Autoruns program is very useful for managing your Startup - http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/default.mspx

For Vista/Windows7 - Start Orb > Search box > type: msconfig and when it appears in the results area above, right-click and choose 'run as administrator '. Autoruns is also very useful.

6. the user runs an inflated/invasive such as Norton and McAfee antivirus program. Replace it with a better program. I recommend NOD32 (commercial) or Avast (free). Avira is also good, but the free version has an unpleasant reminder screen (Google for instructions on how to disable it). The user can also run several real-time antivirus/firewall/security programs.

7. the user has installed new programs that are processor and/or memory-intensive (Photoshop, AutoCAD, Mathmatica or similar) and does not have the power of the equipment.

8 drive fails and is in PIO Mode (IDE only - not applicable for disks SATA drives). It's very much slow (like being in 1985). See Hans-Georg Michna here information -http://winhlp.com/?q=node/10

If the hotfix registry PIO only 'glue' (or you have a SATA drive), the drive is probably faulty and needs to be tested.

  • 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.

    Please provide additional information on your system:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    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?

    No matter what you use for malware protection, perform the following analyses for malware.
    then fix any problems:

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these malware free
    detection programs:

    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/

  • CPU at 100% use, services.exe using 50 to 70% +.

    I've upgraded from Vista to Win 7 on day of release and had no problems until recently. In recent days, my CPU usage will boost 100% at irregular intervals and stay there for a long period of time. When I check the Task Manager and view the processes from all users, services.exe is fluctuating, anywhere from the low 50 to 70% in low use. When the computer works normally, services.exe is close to the high single digit. I uninstalled and programs that I installed immediately before the occurrence of the problem (and it happens again as I type this) and I ran full virus/malware using Microsoft Security Essentials scans and the scanner online ESET. Both are some adware stuff and not withdrawn, but no virus or malware problems. This happened for several days and made my computer almost unusable, and I'm in a fix what to do or where to look next. I hate for resettlement because the original installation was so recent, if all the tips I can try to avoid again would be great. Thank you!

Maximum memory use reaches about 500 000 to 600 000 k and the size of the virtual memory increases to more than 2,000, 000 k. Once the VM reached approximately 2 200 000 k it starts to release very slowly and finally reduced to a size of about 6 000 - 7, 000 k, then just a race of user object. It is not until that time where the system becomes usable. What is happening at each startup and lasts about 15 minutes for the system be usable. I have read many articles on this issue, and the other that a clean reinstall which I do not, cannot find a solution. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Operating system: Windows XP

  • CPU is thrasing like crazy, up to 100% CPU usage almost instantly.

    I use IE 8,00. Windows XP SP3. When I browse the Internet, the CPU goes up like nuts and in many cases to 100% use almost instantly, and a result locks all the programs that have been opened. I use the Task Manager to see the use of resources. My anti virus Norton 360 does not like what I see and this phenomenon occurs mainly when I open websites and do scroll a lot of resources. Nor have any other ongoing enforcement programs that require intense CPU utilization but normal running programs. I further note that the same things that happens when I use MS Excel 2003, locks when I try to copy and paste the same small amounts of information, especailly website screen scraping. Why is everything so fort on the CPU and why my CPU use shot up to 100% of so much of the time. I can hear it like a groan or its collapse when these things occur. Any ideas?

    Changed the dpi that did not work. Police accounted for 70% this morning. I had to use the system again restore.

    Suggestions...
    1 make a check of the file system.
    Start button > Search box type cmd > look up, do a RIGHT click oncmd.exe > click onRun As Administrator > in this window cmd black and white, type at the prompt flashing sfc/scannow > press the ENTER key.
    Note : there is a space between 'sfc' and ' / '.
    To sit and wait. It will take time.
    When finished, exit the cmd window.
    Reboot (restart your computer)

    2. If the above does not solve the problem. Do a check disk.
    Start button > Search box, type cmd > look up, right-click on cmd.exe > Run As Administrator > in the black and white window, at the command prompt flashes, type chkdsk/f/r > press the Enter key.
    Note : there is a space between 'chkdsk' and ' / '.
    The screen will say something like cannot do it now, but you want to run it on reboot. Click on 'y' as in Yes > press > window cmd of output.
    Restart your computer. Check disk starts after reboot. It will take a while. DO NOT stop the machine. Just wait.

    Looks like he runs a setup.exe or two during the connection or at a specific time (where the message services). You have a few automated facilities such as SMS or SUS currently running on this computer? You can also check the startup folder, or search the registry for a run or runservices entry.

  • Bass on Adobe Premiere Pro CPU utilization

    Hello

    I'm dealing with low CPU utilization on the export of videos with Adobe Premiere Pro. The use is between 40 and 50%. My equipment should not be the problem.

    Well... tells us a part of your question, is that your writing export is part of which slows things down. Note that when you write the file much smaller, which unless disk activity to do this, your CPU usage increases.

    Yes... you need several discs with your project better laid out. As suggested.

  • the computer CPU utilization may go back if she attributed to a host in motor?

    Hi gurus of Performance.

    The computer CPU utilization may go back if she attributed to a host in motor?

    Can this be solved by adding an another vCPU virtual machine in the same (supplied with machine)?

    > hkannan wrote:

    > Hi Performance gurus,.

    > Can a VM CPU usage because he moved to a host in motor?

    The simple answer is Yes, allows to observe an analogy, we have a bucket 5ltr is your CPU, you currently fill this bucket of 1ltr of water.  The bucket also represents your view Taskmanager, it shows average usage by 25%.

    Now you move this water in a bucket 2ltr and now your task manager appears average usage by 50%.

    > Can this be solved by adding an another vCPU virtual machine in the same (supplied with machine)?

    You second question is more problematic, just adding a second processor can increase capacity by 50% but it will not diminish the use of the CPU by 50%, the OS and the applications that are installed on this machine should be aware of SMP.  This is true for physical and virtual environments.  More for a virtual environment, if your host is overcommited that the addition of a second vCPU could reduce performance for this person, because he's going to be challenge for 2 hearts free pCPU whenever it issues a statement to the operating system or an application that supports SMP.

    Hello

    This process HP com.hp.devicemodel.transportproxy seems to have a life that he has - he's eating 100% CPU, even when finished printing and the printer is not connected.

    The old NET on this http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Inkjet-Printing/com-hp-devicemodel-transportproxy-uses-100-percent-of-t...   suggested delete and update the drivers of HP who I did it - but it did not help and the problem is still there up until I go to System Preferences > printers and to remove the printer (I can't just delet the process in activity monitor, while it keeps!).   Not really elegant.  And if you forget to do it continues to run, 100% of the CPU and becomes very hot, even when the lid is closed.  Not nice.

    No fix for this, HP?

  • KB973687 - msxml3.dll msxml6.dll - services.exe uses excessive virtual memory, the performance impact on the first logon after restart

    Since the installation of fix KB973687, I had several SP2 and SP3 systems exhibit behavior that makes them unusable until after the first logon is completed, which can take up to 20 minutes.   I've identified the patch (KB973687) and DLLs, that it will update the origin of the problem, but uninstalling the patch does NOT return to normal operation.

    I need to understand how to upgrade these systems WindowsXP SP2 and SP3 to restore normal operation, reinstalling Windows, programs, and settings is an expensive solution.

    The performance problem is caused by services.exe slowly consumes about 1.5 GB of virtual memory, and then slowly releasing.  This seems to be triggered by the first logon after restart, this connection is very slow, the screen is blank for most of it, there might be failures of allocation memory during logon.  Once complete this opening of session and memory usage returns to normal levels, recording and return to work normally as do other operations until the system is restarted.

    Spent a lot of time working with SysInternals Process Explorer, trying to find what specific service might be involved, lightweight system for bare essential services with no luck.

    KB973687 seems to offer only two files msxml3.dll and msxml6.dll.  Uninstalling this patch, resettlement V3 and V6 of the XML parser fail to restore normal operation.

    Not all systems seem to have place still restrict the differences.  Systems that are appear to be the oldest, with Windows XP has been installed for at least a year, installed Microsoft Office and Adobe Acrobat.

    Looking for these forums and the Internet, I believe that many have encountered this problem, but have not is it this level of analysis, seem most attribute it to a virus, I see several start explorer.exe manually, I didn't know all the alternatives before reinstalling Windows.

    Found the solution, the following has been fixed in System Cleaner of Comodo 2.2.129172.4:

    "For some strange reason, after changing some settings of the system with the CSC LastGood.tmp Directoy began to constantly be read from my hard drive. This would occur up to about 90 to 99% of my memory was used and then stopped, begin to free the memory, and the system began to slowly to function normally.
    I used the process explore from sysinternals to help diagnose the problem with any process other than services.exe using memory.

    I used sysinterals filemonitor to see LastGood.tmp directory has been read repeatedly.
    After you have uninstalled CSC the problem has been resolved. »

    Even with the effort to find the solution, it was better to reinstall.  Hope this solution helps others.
