I currently have 91 processes running and 20 of them are svchost.exe

I have a toshiba satellite A135-S4467 with an Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 CPU TS5200 @ 1.60 GHz.  I am running Windows Vista Home Premium.  An operating system for 32-bit with 2 GB of RAM.  My computer is not working as it should... for example I get "not responding" on programs, again and again, then it won't for a while.  My startup speed is horrible!  I recently increased my RAM by a GB and it doesn't really seem like he did much more of a difference.  When I go to my Windows Task Manager, I see there are 91 processes running and 20 of them are svchost.exe! My CPU usage varies between 15% and 0 # % and physical memory is 58%.    I don't know which ones I can stop at startup or at any time. I tried the whole "trial and error" with the boot and I don't get the case! Help, please!

Three main points:

1. 91 processes can be a little more that some people, but it is not an unusual or unacceptable number.

2. I strongly recommend * against * trying to improve performance by disabling the process. IFT is very difficult to know what it is safe to do so, and for most people, it is more likely to cause problems to fix in the / and even if you're lucky and don't cause any trouble, your performance will likely get no better.

3. it is difficult to know for sure what your problem is, but your description of it makes it sound like it is most likely that you are infected with malware. What anti-virus and anti-spyware programs do you run?

  • Second Process Explorer that run under the NEST 6200; as svchost.exe that runs under the NEST 6200

    I found, when the use of Process Explorer, that a second version of the Explorer P. works too, but its icon (left) is a standard and not the true icon of the Explorer P..  This second version ran under the NEST 6200, which I believe has to do with a modem.  I have a modem on my Vista machine, but it is not used (no telephone connection).  I went into the folder where P. Explorer runs and found procexp.chm, and when I tried to open the file, Windows said it was a program.  To disable, I renamed it, and now I'm not running.  Also, I found of svchost.exe running under the NEST 6200, but with no description, co. name, path or command line.  I have known big bed (over 500 MB), using svchost.exe, from time to time.  I think having a virus.  Can someone tell me what I have and then tell me how to remove from my machine?  (Also, I've known a slow machine, usually after starts.)

    I have two versions of svchost.exe on my machine.  Tests for a virus showed neither to be a virus.  I tried to delete the version that is not in the c:\windows\system32 folder but am unable to do so.  Can someone tell me how to delete such a file, or to replace it with the correct version?

  • Master Page Items question: I use master pages for a 60 page document and just found out that some of my master page items are multiplying! There are some boundaries on the pages and some of them are constantly a quantity apparently endless on top of e

    Master Page Items question: I use master pages for a 60 page document and just found out that some of my master page items are multiplying! There are some boundaries on the pages, and some of them are constantly a quantity apparently without end on top of the other. For example, I replace to change the color of the border and notice a black there's below him so I deleted the extra and there is another and another and another... EEK. I can easily hide them, BUT I fear they will lead to complications in the case of pre-press printing. What is the cause? What can I do to prevent it? How can I get rid of the stack-up?

    It's always haapening, if you substitute any element on the page and later master you reapply the same or another master. I would NEVER say to replace any itme master page in the page. Instead create another master based on the first, make the substitutions and apply this master. Substitutions on the pages should be avoided in all cases, not only for the problem you described above, other issues of accessibility will also come into play.

  • How can I use process explore check PID 1176 60% CPU svchost.exe? Help, please.

    As the title, how can I use process Explorer to check PID 1176 60% CPU svchost.exe? Help, please.

    The task manager has PID 1176-60% CPU, all the time, which I believe is the reason my pc works so slow.

    How to use Exp Pro to know what is actually using 60% of my cpu, via svchost 1176 PID?

    I found the Exp Pro Geek guide - but are struggling to pass for a non geek.

    Using Vista 32 bit.

    Thanks in advance for any answers.

    Process explore uses more resources than svchost, it works automatically using a lot of memory. Anyway, the open task

    Mgr, locate the svchost, R.click on the location of TI/properties/open a file. You will find that it is a service of microsoft.

    The drain is usually in BITS, try to go to run, or cmd, type: services.msc in msc, locate BITS, R.click on it, open,

    Set to manual start, exit msc, restart the pc.

  • I currently have version 3.6 and I keep going on the site and download the latest version (7.01). Installation works perfectly, but when I run Firefox, it is always the version 3.6. I tried this about 5 times and nothing works.

    As the question said, Firefox updates not even when I download and install the updates. It works perfectly, but it is simply not up to date. I was stuck with 3.6. whenever I run the browser after a successful installation.

    Your string UserAgent in Firefox is probably messed up by another program you have installed.

    http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/USER_AGENT

    type of topic: config in the URL bar and press ENTER.

    If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access this page.

    Filter = general.useragent.

    Right click the preferences that are "BOLD", a line at a time, select reset.

    Then restart Firefox

    I can't imagine how JPG images under 12 mb would be quite 'a problem', while the above 12 MB JPG images are fine; Looks like they don't know what they are talking about. If they wanted to say 12 megapixels, then it makes sense.
