Help? 100% CPU in Vista usage

I have Vista and my CPU usage remains at 100% even if I'm not running any programs.  A couple of days when I stopped it there were 13 updates who crossed and given that this problem occurred.  Any help?

Hello

You see an error message? If Yes, what is the full and exact error message?

Method 1:

If you do not have Windows Vista Service Pack 1 installed, I suggest you upgrade to service pack 1. This seems to be a question that has been corrected in the version of Windows Vista SP1.

Method 2:

I suggest that you try to run Microsoft Safety Scanner for any malware or spyware infection and check if it helps.

Note: the data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.

Method 3:

  • Vista Enterprise using 100% CPU countiniously

    I use Vista business on dell Inspiron 6400 (had vista with laptop). The laptop has dual core processor and a CPU is used 100% without interruption since install. I have installed all updates using windows update utility. I have also disabled the indexing service and also to adjust Visual effects for best performance. The problem still exists.

    In the Task Manager, I see a peremptory touch 100% CPU graph and another pretty normal CPU graph. I have 2 GB of ram and still 1,3 GB free. I have not yet installed any software. In the list of process System Idle Process takes, 90 + CPU usage no other program uses much CPU.

    For this reason, my laptop is very slow to respond and almost useless, please help me.

    I think that I found the correct culprit this time. I tried to disable the edge of BIOS devices implemented and it worked. When narrowed "Media Card and 1394" device was causing too much hardware interrupts. My PC works fine and no CPU usage after you turn off the device. I think that the fault was in Media card on board the aircraft.

    It took me a long way to reach this solution, so to help others here you are a few steps to take to limit the problem.
    -Task Manager open to see if any software uses the CPU more than expected. If you notice any software then its easy to uninstall or disable the program at startup etc.
    -If Task Manager processors are normal and yet one or more CPU is used close to 100% and then download and run http://live.sysinternals.com/procexp.exe ProcessXP and run
    -If material interruptions take up too much cpu, then try to disable/remove your attached devices, like modems usb, wireless lan, lan card BIOS Setup etc.

    Hope this will help.

  • Satellite P200 - 1EE 100% CPU with Toshiba Flash Cards usage

    Resource monitor shows 100% CPU usage constantly in recent weeks (no problem for the first 6 months that I have owned the machine) with 85 to 99% of my CPU used on 2 entries each shown as "Toshiba Flash Cards", no idea why and how I can sort this out as it slows everything down? Thank you very much

    Andy

    Hello

    The utility of Toshiba Flash Cards is a part of the Vista Toshiba value added package and it controls the functionality of buttons FN.
    Kody said already that it is advisable to reinstall the VAP to check if it would prevent the high utilization of the processor.

    You should also clean the operating system using the CCLeaner. After PPV remove you must run the CCLeaner to ensure that all of the VAP files have been deleted.

    Good bye

    I think first we should know something on your system, then you should run some respectable malware removal tools and then only start troubleshooting of any problems (unless you just want to start guessing and try things).

    Because the Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system request when a new question is asked, we know almost nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

    Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

    Provide information on your system, the better you can:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Internet browser and version?

    Your system's disks IDE or SATA drives?

    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.)

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a genuine XP installation CD bootable, which is the same Service as your installed Service Pack (this is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

    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 to antivirus/antimalware protection please follow these steps:

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs at:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

  • Firefox and Shockwaveflash 14.0.0.145 using 100% CPU

    Firefox (v30.0) normally uses the CPU of 2 to 6%.
    When I start a video using shockwave flash 14.0.0.145, firefox uses 20 to 40% of the CPU and shockwave 50-80%.
    For the most part resulting in a total of 100% CPU usage.

  • W7 100% CPU all the time - what can I do about it?

    Hi and thanks in advance for the help. My computer has very little memory, so I keep it really clean. Do just about everything with him, it is browse the web and stream media. Recently, it has been very slow, and Firefox (49.2) has suspended all the time. At first, I thought it was Firefox, and I followed all of their instructions to identify the high resource using plugins, etc. I deleted the history, ran CCleaner, etc.. Then I realized that even if I close FF I always see spikes frequent (approximately five seconds) to 100% CPU usage, and it often extends by 50% even if I don't do anything. I ran Avast and Malwarebytes and MSE - full scan with each of them and none of them found nothing. Is it possible that my computer resources is hacked and used by someone else?  As for mining bitcoin or something else?  How I understand this and stop it?  If it is little likely, what can I do to improve performance. It seems kind of ridiculous that open a document or a web page to "forever".  Even to write this post, I type, and then look at the screen, while the letters slowly appear...

    Not sure what is relevant for the problem, but I have 4MB of RAM, but the single 80 GB hard drive (hope I said that right), which only 29GB is free. Right now I am 1480 Cached, available from 1725 and ~ 320 is free, there are 69 total running processes. The only applications that are running are FF and two documents LibreOffice.  I checked a few days ago, and the system says that I don't have to defragment.

    I don't even know if all this has nothing to do with the peaks of the processor, so it's how little I know!

    Any help is very appreciated!

    Try running task Mgr, looking for running applications, locate the (s) using all the resources, R.click on this subject,

    Properties, see what/why use that much... In addition, 69 process is quite a bit, will try to run or cmd,.

    type: services.msc scroll through, double click on one, properties, clear the value or manual start. Manual start

    Are available on request. Also, open the event viewer, get the details of the operating system, looking for event/warning,.

    R.Click, Properties. Also streaming video uses a lot of pc resources.

    Hi Kibertrons,

    Thanks for the reply with the status of the issue.

    Here in this situation, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it works for you.

    Method 1:

    Run the troubleshooter of System Maintenance and check if it helps. This troubleshooting will help you solve common problems with Windows.

    Follow the steps to run the Troubleshooter:

    (a) press Windows + W on the keyboard.
    (b) type Troubleshooting in the search box and press ENTER.
    (c) select Troubleshooting. Click view all , and then select System Maintenance.
    (d) click Next and follow the instructions to run the troubleshooter.

    Method 2:

    Put the computer in a clean boot state, and check if the problem persists. This will help you to determine which third party/PPP program causing this problem (it will determine if there any other program/third-party application another Chrome is causing this issue).

  • distnoted consume 100% cpu

    Why is this happening? Is this a virus? I have 16 GB of RAM + SSD - surely that should be record high enough to run OSX 10.11?

  • 100% cpu

    FF uses 100 + CPU on my MacBook, if not totally quickly updated. This, despite making all the suggested fixes, several times.

    It got so bad that it overheats my Mac constantly, causing my fan go on uninterrupted full breath, even when he is in the background, so I basically have to stop using it.

    Mozilla should take seriously and review this off-road browser.

  • Safari more than consuming 100% CPU

    I am currently working with Safari 9.1.1 and whenever it is open it consumes 100% CPU and causes fans on my 13-inch MacBook Air to the race. For example, while describing the problem in Safari with only this tab open my CPU is 102.3% (33.2 MB memory). Besides the closure of the only open tab CPU usage remains high until I have completely quit the application. If I open the same page in another browser, the CPU of the other browser usage is much lower. Any ideas as to what is the cause and how it can be fixed will be very appreciated.

    A simple reset of the SMC should solve this problem. Please read this article to know how to do this in your device:

    Hi apdubois, it is useful to know that Flash is the problem but, as you point out, life without Flash is not very interactive.

    It is a standard orientation that addresses the most common reasons for problems of Flash in Firefox. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:

    (1) make sure that all recorders/downloaders who interact with Flash media are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them temporarily.

    (2) disable graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox and Flash

    (A) in Firefox, uncheck the box here and restart:

    the button Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) > Options > advanced > General > "use hardware acceleration when available.

    (B) in Flash, see this article from Adobe technical support: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues

    (3) turn off protected mode (Windows Vista/7/8)
