  Hi, I'm an engineer, for the past two weeks, my users are complaining about slow and found the CPU usage goes to 100% frequently, as we have laptop Dell Latitude with i7, 4 GB memory, Win7 64 bit OS. but this problem is din't solve even after fresh OS installation.

  Check your remote destop setting. When something like that happens, its been my experience that someone or something keep 'rattling' computers trying to connect to them i.e. virus/trojan or something that someone installed which is now trying to hit everything on the network.

• The CPU usage goes to 100%

  I have a laptop Dell Studio 2010, the processor Intel, 4 GB of ram, hard disk 320 GM (180 GB consumed) running Windows 7 and IE 11 giving me CPU usage problems.  I don't know what everything is related, so here's the story.

  I lived my download speed slow - dropped by half every 2 hours or more after a reboot.  Occasional problems with the speed of the computer as well, and when I checked the resource monitor I see the CPU usage hit 100%.  A reboot has always solved the problem.  Running in Mode safe mode eliminates the loss of download speed so I knew it wasn't a problem with the hardware or my cable modem or a wireless router.  I have explored many possible problems, but none solves the problem, then I reinstalled Win 7 Friday, January 16.  Download speed, not only fixed but faster than before.  It remains stable and do not disintegrate so there was something wrong with the OS, etc.

  However, the problem of the use of the CPU remains.  What seems to happen is that something triggers a high demand and then all processes on the computer joins.   When I look at the resource now monitor consumes 1.3% of CPU, but when things are choking it consumes 15% of CPU and go all processes running as 0.5% to 5%.  So you can't point to a single process as the culprit it is possible that web sites of strong demand (lots of ads) trigger the problem.  I'll do some research on that.

  I did a lot of web research as well as this forum, and no patches seem to work or apply to me.  I ran a Malwarebytes scan and a full virus scan with Microsoft Security Essentials: nothing found.

  The computer is almost 4 years, but I wouldn't spend the $$ to replace and find that the problem is software.  Any ideas?

  The problem solved when I've upgraded to Win10 on this machine.  At the same time degradation download speed (with time) newsletter is resolved.  I can't imagine how everything worked but I discussed the idea with several IT people I know and have gotten various suggestions.

  Since a clean installation of the operating system has not fixed it, I do not understand why install Win10 fixed, but that's it.

  Since then, I've replaced this computer.

• After 30 seconds of playback AVCHD m2ts to xbox 360 extender stutter starts, mfpmp goes to 100% on Windows 7 host computer.

  Hello

  The first 30 seconds, the mfpmp.exe process takes just 10-20% during playback on the Xbox 360 Media Center Extender session. If no film (taken with sony HDR-CX11) more then 30 seconds is a problem, the stuttering start, maybe something with buffering of the mfpmp process. The content isn't DRM as much as I know, I don't need this.

  I have a huge collection of movies to AVCHD and photos, so evertime I start the CCM session on the xbox a wmpnetwk.exe process is started to run multimedia files, + 60,000 images and + 25,000 video hollow. Perhaps he disrupts video playback, I just bought a xbox 360 slim. In 2010, I had a fat xbox version (RROD), he played the AVCHD content with no problems. My Windows 7 was not chaned meanwhile. It has Sp1 service pack and updates between the two, perhaps something has changed with AVCHD playback in a session of Xbox 360 MCE.

  Any ideas why more long AVCHD movies are choppy / stutter during playback?

  What about Tom

  In addition to the reported problem I suddenly could not use mstsc.exe in the same workstation Windows 7 mentioned above. After a few reboots and try and erros, I decided to uninstall the Antivirus software Avira free. This because the antivirus prevented me from using a restore point from the system since last week.

  After uninstallation THAT RDP worked again, I also tried to spread the files m2ts to Xbox, @ first it stuttered again. I checked a few other films, after a few minutes all the movies played without problem.

  I installed the basics of security, no more problems.

• Using the drive almost always at 100% at the start and sometimes at other times

  Recently, my laptop seemed particularly overwrought, even when executing threads. Whenever I start it (and also sometimes at random so that I use for light work), it is much slower than it has been in the past, and when I check the tast Manager, it says that the disc is in 90 to 100% almost every time. So I watch programs using the floppy and almost all of them use it with a rate of 0 MB/s, and all other use at a fairly slow pace. I know it's normal for notebook computers to slow down over time (mine is a little over a year old), but I wonder if it is an expected behavior. I find it odd that the drive is the treatment so furiously, but it seems to me that no program is really use it. I enclose below, pictures of my complete task manager a few minutes after starting.

  My processor is an Intel i7-4700MQ CPU @ 2.40 GHz and I have 12 GB of RAM.

  But the laptop does not start the Windows 8.

  I get only the screen + Toshiba Leading Innovation > +.

  Can someone tell me how I can insert the BIOS or how do I turn on the computer.

  Where and how can I open to find the hard drive.

  Well cordially

  At first I want to say is: don t open anything on your own. I presume that for laptop is pretty new with valid warranty so don t do anything that can void the warranty.

  Since when did you notice this kind of behavior?
  Have you noticed the problem even if you use it in laptop mode and tablet?

• The CPU usage goes up to 50-60% right when I start the computer.

  Original title: high CPU usage

  I have a pc with windows 7 64-bit, 4 GB ram, AMD Phenom II x 2 511 processor and a Nvidia Geforce Gtx 260. The CPU usage goes up to 50-60% right when I start the computer. I ran the Task Manager and there is no program using the cpu. It has nothing to do with anny viruses because I scanned the computer with two different programs. We do not have Steam and the EA download manager. What could be the problem?

  "Idle" means "doing nothing."  Windows runs the "System Idle" process when the processor has no useful to perform tasks.

  Look at the status bar at the bottom of the Task Manager and you will see that the CPU usage does NOT include the percentage for the System Idle process.

  What are the processes other than Idle System added up to 50-60%?

  I suggest that you run an online scan using antivirus ESET online--> http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/

  and then download, install, update and run the free MalwareBytes AntiMalware--> https://www.malwarebytes.org/ version

  I expect that the MalwareBytes Installer is clean enough, but you should pay attention when installing any software to make sure that you accept all of the pre-selected options to install other bundled applications.

• Hard drive is no longer visible to windows 7 ultimate x 64

  Hi all
  I'm a MSDN. I have a number of virtual machines that I work on.

  Last night, I had two running virtual machines and failure at the same time.  They go on my F drive.

  Restarting the PC drive F is not visible to windows. I'm guessing that there is some sort of failure on the drive.

  I was looking around and found advice like going to disk management and rescan etc. No luck so far.

  I tried to switch the machine on in the BIOS, but in the bios ASUS, I do not see the mentioned drives.

  Can someone point me to a good article on how to diagnose the drive suddenly disappear like that with a failure suspected of some sort?

  This must happen a lot. I'm surprised that I wasn't able to find a good article detailed on google.

  I hope it isn't a catastrophic disk failure.

  Please accept my thanks in advance for any help you can be in this case.

  Best regards

• CPU goes to 100% svchost State takes all the resources on the Qosmio F10

  CPU goes to 100% svchost State takes all the resources. Norton can not find any illegal software. Have tried to list the processes (run... etc.). I get a long list, don't know what to do about this. Anyone out there have some help?

  Hey Buddy

  The same problem here. :( A universal solution is unknown to me but what I do is from the Task Manager. When svchost shows more than 90% of its use I simply stop this stupid process. After having done that, I can use my laptop without any problem and it will not happen again.

  After restarting the laptop, the same thing happens again. I checked some other forums but never found no reasonable explanation how manage this stupid question.

  If someone knows more please let us know.

• How for-loop to calculate RMS with length of 100 samples window and step 1 sample window

  Hello world

  I'm trying to make a transition from Matlab to Labview signal processing needs... Specifically, I need to smooth out and quantify a randon, two-phase sampling signal ~ 128000 in length... In matlab, I so calculate the RMS with a length of 100 samples window and no window of 1 sample to smooth.linear evelope signal; do my calculations of amplitude...

  I have a problem to do in Labview... The matlab code that I would use normally is:

  ___________________________________________________________

  Variables to assign % RMS

  x = signal of interest;

  window_length = 100;

  window_step = 1;

  Calculation of % RMS

  EMG = x ^ 2.

  index = 0;

  nWindows = floor (nrows - (window_length - window_step)) / window_step;

  EMG_rms = zeros (nwindows, matches); % The pre-allocating memory

  j = 1:window_step:length (EMG) - window_length + 1;

  index = index + 1;

  EMG_rms (index, = sqrt (average (EMG (j: j + window_length-1,));))

  end

  ________________________________________________________

  I tried many times with the loop for, but no luck... Ingore smileys... They must be a colon (:, to indicate all lines) followed by a)...

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you
