Vista goes to 50% CPU usage and connects the computer for hours after the beginning

Original title: Vista processor

Stupid Vista goes to 50% CPU usage and connects the computer for hours after the start.  Cannot run anything with any request of CPU without getting bogged down and crashing.  It is not windows defender, I suspend this service and the machine is ok for another 1/2 hour, them I'm up to 50% of the CPU.  The idle process said Task Manager is > 90%, still indicates 50% CPU usage and the cooling fan looks like a 747 taking off.  Should I just pull the machine and go for Linux, or what?  Cannot run games or whatever it is, totally disgusted with vista of POS and microsoft can it Deep and do not get windows 7, it is probably worse.  Is that all I can turn off to get the same performance than, say, windows 3.1?  It would be preferable to the current situation.  MSCKMA.

Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

-Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
each installation.

Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
necessary.

Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
manually by model.

Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
get new manually if you wish.

    When you say you checked the space on OlioWeb and OlioDB VMs, have you done this before or after the race?  For verification, please make a "df-h" on all 4 virtual machines before and after the race.

    In addition, it seems that you have set up the hosts file incorrectly:

    OlioWeb0_hosts.txt:192.168.7.4 Olio-db
    OlioWeb0_hosts.txt:192.168.7.14 Olio-DB
    OlioWeb1_hosts.txt:192.168.7.4 Olio-db
    OlioWeb1_hosts.txt:192.168.7.14 Olio-DB

    Only, there should be one entry per host for olio-db file.  Try to change that and we will collect a cleaner race.

  • Recently FireFox often caused 100% CPU usage and locks until it finishes the process (the different). Clear the cookies/cache did not help. Any ideas?

    Windows 2000 SP4, 1 g RAM, Firefox version 9.0.1
    We keep IE6 and Firefox open simultaneously to 2 different email accounts. Firefox has always been much faster even with 3 or 4 tabs open, but for the past few weeks trying to update a screen suddenly CPU goes to 100% usage and of course nothing will move until the process is complete. Close one or more tabs does not help. If I close Firefox completely using the task processor Manager goes back down to zero. After restarting Firefox CPU use may or may not go back to the top as he tries to continue the previous task which has been lock him up.
    He did this with Firefox 3.6, but still it did not happen immediately after the 9.0.1 update either.

    Hi vbolton,

    Hope this helps!

  • My laptop is often spiking to 100% CPU usage and always > 10%, with a physical memory to 25% + even though I have no programs running

    Recently, I reformatted the drive, reinstalled Windows and have no personal data on this subject. The only application there is office, which I am not, using McAffee and my browser:-I use it mainly for web browsing.

    It seems to happen mostly when I was using the browser, then left the machine for a few hours, then come back and tried to use it again. I turned off the screen saver and specify power options to keep permannently because she seems to be that the question was restartinjg rest. When the CPU usage is at its peak, and I try to return to the browser (or whatever it is) it may take some minutes to answer - just to load the Control Panel, for example.

    I can see from the Manager tasks, which is currently running, but ideas on how to identify the process that all take this resource, I can stop safely and therefore to save resources?

    Processes are:-

    CSRSS
    DWM
    Explorer
    mcagent
    MSASCui
    rundl32
    Sidebar
    taskeng
    Taskmgr
    Winlogon

    Also a lot of services - too many to list!

    All the processes you list, apart from mcagent, which is McAfee, are essential components of Windows. If you finish one of them outside the sidebar of your computer stops working to a greater or lesser degree. You could try gadgets on sidebar of closing in case one of them is wrong to behave.

    Another thing that can cause the CPU to boost with no application running is Windows Update and probably analysis and updates from McAfee.

    Don't you have the CPU column shows in the Task Manager, so that you can see which process is using most of the CPU? What processor is it? What is a heart?

    A better tool than the Manager of the tasks for these circumstances is Process Explorer.

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/Sysinternals/bb896653

    Process Explorer is a chart of the CPU where you can put the mouse on a cob and it will tell you what process is using most of the CPU.

    There is an introduction to Process Explorer here.

    As for the memory of 25%, 25% of what? Computer laptop 2 GB I write this on shows 42% of physical memory used with any running application. It's Windows. It's big enough.

  • Firefox, the CPU usage and unresponsive.

    This issue began when I * lost * all my modules (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1290457) after the update to 47 FF... Then I downgraded back to 46 FF. Soon after, my HD failed (and the problem has ceased to be a problem, of course). However, Firefox runs slowly now. I know I have a few extensions and it ran slowly before - but now with a new SSD in the machine, I thought he would steal.

    I tried to diagnose whether there could be the link - but then I found that it is unlikely (because I can't imagine a bad connection, causing the CPU to spike)-(see images). In general, it is still using a lot of CPU--but, 3 to 7 times per HOUR, it crashes (second image); in fact, it happened three times JUST while I was typing this bug report.

    I was informed by a volunteer (I think) to download the extension "Gecko Profiler" and perform a scan.

    Here are three links to the data (I think the third happened * during * one of the episodes "don't respondents not"):

    https://Cleopatra.IO/#report=c00b64c17745769d47192a885151781dc9438e70 https://Cleopatra.IO/#report=c7abdc6b83d90f54dad1b04281f46b16bf44739d https://Cleopatra.IO/#report=43d908fec8b7bf87d2026b059b2f788b37d3308f

    But I have no idea how read/interpret.

    Can someone please give me an idea of what is at the origin of the hang-up? I really don't want to switch to Chrome (how can they insist that the tabs be * higher * the address bar?) but, that starts to look like my only option (which is a shame, because I've used this browser since Netscape family, for years and years...)

  • The processor high/weird CPU usage and about 20 to 25% system interruptions.

    Hello

    I use an AMD phemon IIx4 965 processor. (never had proplems with this till now.) One of its mainstays bed use ranging from 70-99% in Task Manager exercising while the other 3 are normally working / reading normal numbers. The question comes at random, but won't go away unless I restart my computer. This problem arises in a week a go, I was playing a game in steam when I noticed the drastic performance to fall and began studying. The question, something just when im not playing. I use my computer mainly on the game. The computer slows down because of this. I have no idea what the cause. Help?

    Procexp said interruptions system 20-25. According to CPU - Z and CrystaldistInfo my HARD drive temperatures are all normal, around 28 - 38 c idle.

    Reasently, I got a new case for my computer parts, I removed and passed my components of my old case to a new. I tried to be careful and I know (I know) thinki. enough computers to do this by myself. Fifi, it done once in the past. I have read the instructions and put / connected all the wires and parts according to them. The machine started normally. No problems. This could cause this problem, is a thread in the wrong place? I do not know.

    I used free versions of Windows security essentials and Spybot search and destroy, Avast kernel tdsskiller to search for viruses and malware. All this happened in own. Can he still be a virus or something?
    Used more claire Wise registry and Ccleaner but noting alarming is come to the top, (again I think.) some things Yes, but breaking the ' fix claim has pursuant button has not set a cpu problem.

    First I though its my GPU causing the problem drivers. (google said) Approximately 45 days only a go replace my old AMD for a new R280 AMD Radeon 6950. Allworked very well so far. I found that according to Unknown Device Identifier I had older drivers still on my machine. I had trouble removing the old drivers, but eventually I had to use an uninstall program display driver for getting rid of them and now I only see one set of drivers. This has not fixed the issue of the use of the cpu.

    IM lost, at the end of my skills (mainly google-fu). Can someone help me? I hope this is the right place for this post, if it isn't then I apologize.

    If you want me (hopefully) post set and whatknot please first tell what program for and where to find it.

    Hi people,

    I think I need urgent help though.

    Recently, I thought I downloaded malware that is injected with the Trojan horse. And now, I believe that the Trojan horse lies in my computer. I did this because my CPU usage is always at 100% even when I just restarted my com. Initially, I found there was a program called dgen.exe running in my computer to a 60% of CPU usage. Never so, I remove the dgen.exe from my computer but I don't know if I remove it entirely. Now, I'll have another program called RegSvcs.exe in my computer operating at 50 percent CPU usage. I googled out and it says it may or may not be required by windows and it could be a trojan virus as well. That's why there at - it anyone who can enlighten me on this?

    I have to delete or to update or something?
