SVCHOST. EXE using 100% CPU

I have a Pentium (R) 4 CUP 2.4 GHz running Windows XP Home Service Pack 3 5.1.

In the last month, I updated my virus software - ZoneAlarm - and downloaded Google Earth.   Meanwhile, there was also many windows updates automatic including IE8.   Since the download of the update to ZoneAlarm I have the BSOD a few times (the BSOD said ' corrupted driver MMMPOOL or similar) but after reboot it was fine.

We had a few fluctuations in power a couple of days but the computer is connected to the battery of emergency relief so has been closed properly.   When the power was restored properly the computer started and the BSOD came once again.  You had to reboot a few times in safe mode, and then selecting the option "last settings that worked.  Since then, every restart was fine (no BSOD).

I ran a full scan, update ZoneAlarm for updates.   It is a Trojan horse that he deleted on reboot.  However, everything was very slow and firefox who previously worked very well kept freezing.  Outlook Express has been extremely slow.   IE8 was still slower than firefox.   I've updated to the latest version of Firefox, but no improvement, or worse!

The Task Manager showed the CPU usage to 100%.

Then I ran a CHKDSK and defrag because it had not been for some time.

After that, the CPU usage is 100% yet once (I dunno what I used to take me to check this again.)  A SVCHOST. EXE program was the culprit to 99.   I finished the program and it came with a warning message indicating the process server Launcher DCOM had been canceled and the system has been restarted.   The PID of this program was 868.

After a reboot, it seemed better.  I used Outlook Express OK, but as soon as I launched a browser, the CPU usage went straight to 100%.   Even if I close the browser, he remained at 100% and has remained there since.

Online access is practically impossible on this computer, I use another computer to get help!

Advice would be welcome.    Please note that I'm not terribly computer advice should be simple and basic English.  TIA.

Remove the Trojan from your computer, it is stiil in your computer.
Your computer will work normally.
Your alarm zone anti virus program or fire wall only? or both?
If you analyze the pc and the answer no viruses not detected.
I swuggest you use another antivirus program by stopping zoenalarm temperory or delete, in mind that 2 anti programs antivirus at the same time on the pc will be a conflict, so you should disabel or one of them or remove.
 
1. right click on the my computer icon go to System Restore then put a tik on judgment system for all stations restore, apply, then ok.
2. complete the system scan and remove Trojan horse if you can find or put a carentien if you don't know what to do.
3. restart the computer and see if it works properly and also run full system scan new .If it is clean your pc is now 100% clean of the Trojan horse.
4 after 1 or 2 days also scan your computer and then repeat step no.1 again by going to the system restore and yesterday to cancel the tik put you on the restoration of the system shutdown for all stations, apply, then ok.

Good luck

  • 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!

  • (fontcache) Svchost.exe using 99% cpu

    Hi, I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x 64. Randomly, the svchost.exe (fontcache) service will start using 99% of my cpu, everything a lot. Specifically, it starts happening when I play Team Fortress 2, but it also happens while I play the game. During a match, making the game lag, giving me a very large ping 2000ms + and no fps. If I end the process, it stops and is fine. But it could be the cause?

    Common programs, I have running at all times are as follows:

    AVG anti-virus

    Pidgin (AIM client)

    Skype

    Google chrome

    Windows media player

    Any help would be great, it becomes annoying random having my computer be bogged down for no reason. Let me know if you need more information

    Thank you, xJedix

    Hey guys, thanks for the suggestions.  Actually, I found another person who had this problem.  Their solution was to remove the additions of the shell that nvidia added to when you right-click on the desktop and things.  This has solved the problem, at least until now...  It's 3 days now without problem and also fixed my problem Explorer.exe crashing several times when I was reviewing the files :)

    If anyone is wondering how to disable programs that have been added to the hull, use shexview.

  • TosBtProc.exe using 100% CPU

    I have a Tecra with built-in Bluetooth 9100, running Windows XP SP2 however, everytime I turn on the bluetooth, using the system tray icon the TosBtProc process starts to use 100% of my CPU and pipes of my machine unless I kill the process.

    This problem was happening before that I updated to SP2, I tried upgrading to the latest v3.20.01 Bluetooth Stack but that made no difference.

    As a result, I can't connect my Bluetooth phone to my PC.

    Does anyone have ideas, what is the problem?

    It's very strange. I have Tecra M1 and it resembles your T9100. I tried to go wireless and Bluetooth connection, but everything works fine. Can you please try the same thing using FN + F8? Use just the Bluetooth wireless as there is option that allows connections on the same time.

  • svhost.exe causing 100 cpu

    My computer is running at a snail pace because the svchost.exe uses 100% cpu ALL the time.  It's almost impossible to open and close programs.  I'm only able to use my computer if I stop the process through the Task Manager.  I would like to find a fix for this if possibel so I didn't complete the process each time I want to use the computer. O running all tests antivirus and registery scans I can think.  I thought it must be some kind of virus, but I can't find anything.  Help, please!

  • Explorer.exe and svchost.exe using too much memory

    I have disabled the automatic updates after the last round of updates, and now, all of a sudden, explorer.exe and svchost.exe use too much memory... enough to interfere with other programs, I try to use.

    Help?

    Windows XP Professional - Svc Pack 3 processor: Intel (r) Pentium (r) D CPU 2.80GHz CPU speed: 2.73 GHz memory: 512 MB

    Why you turn off automatic updates?

    There are between the two options. I just set it to notify. When it is practical, I go to the Microsoft Update slte and use the custom (not Express) option. This gives the user full control of the update of trial.

    You will have a better idea of the cause of the problem using Process Explorer.

    Download Process Explorer.
    For more information about Process Explorer, see here:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/SystemInformation/ProcessExplorer.mspx

    With svchost.exe provide us a list of services using the process. There are number of processes that are using svchost.exe, so we need to know that we provide more targeted assistance. Right click on the process, click on properties and look at the Services tab.

    Solution Explorer. exe has a number of subprocesses. Select the sub-process, click Properties and check the Services tab.

    Have you recently changed all types of starting any service. This often leads to the problem. Users often disable a reflection of service to speed up the system performance. In practice what is done is of one or several programs to malfunction.

    Hope this helps, Gerry Cornell

  • 35.0 Firefox uses 100% cpu on Mac Yosemite 10.10.1 then either breaks or needs force quit.

    I had this problem since installing Yosemite and using 34.0.5. I upgraded yesterday to 35.0 but still the same problem. Firefox will work happily for a while and then all of a sudden will use 100% cpu. I disabled all extensions and plug-ins and that made no difference. If I use Java (8-25), it will usually make it crash but not always.

    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)

    Hello

    You did changes to the computer before the show?

    Svchost.exe (Service, or SvcHost host) is a system process that hosts several Windows services. It is essential in the implementation of the process of the so-called service shared, where a number of services can share a process in order to reduce the consumption of resources.

    Sometimes viruses can usurp themselves as system files.

     

    Method 1: Put the computer to boot and see if that helps:

    A clean boot to check if startup item or services to third-party application is causing this issue.
