Windows % u201cSystem % u201d performance

My CPU and network are running at almost 100%. How can I solve this problem?

Your post is off-topic for the forum for Feedback, so I moved it to the "Performance and Maintenance" window forum.  Please do not let your WIndows version a secret.

I can understand concerns about the use of the network, the truth is that the processors are always busy at 100%.  It is the only State that they can be.  If they don't run a process for you, then they run the Scheduler, or they run the idle process, but they are still and always running something.  Only when they have so many things to do that they cannot run programs that you initiated there is a cause for concern.

If I saw a lot of inexplicable network activity, I download and install Wireshark (http://www.wireshark.org/) to see if she could tell me the other end of traffic points.

    ===========================================

    Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

    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: run DriverView - define the VIEW
    for the drivers Microsoft hide - updated those without drain in their names. (Also updated
    the BIOS and chipset drivers.)

    -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.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above
    It is preferable to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.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.

    Stop Windows 7 to automatically install device drivers

    ===========================================

    Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however don't forget to check your antivirus
    programs, the main drivers and BIOS update and also solve the problems with the cleanboot method
    first.

    Hello.
    Recently, a few days ago bought my asus x202e PC so I

    It's really hard to change to another diet plan I have to quickly press another plan of power until it takes effect, when I change on the other can plan jumps to high performance immediately.
    Also when I managed to choose balanced or power saving when I unplug or plug in the AC, it changes to high performance.
    It's really a question but I need to take the laptop to school with his light and portable computer battery is dying quickly, if I do not pay attention to it and its very annoying. Oh and also the fan on high performance is going to be full speed noisy and heats up the pc, so no good for the battery at all. Its very big problem for me. Help, please!

    Yes, I managed to solve it. I tried many things end up f-ing of the things that I shouldn't mess with. Then I refresh my pc, the windows function 8. Then I noticed something like powerskin window in the lower left corner. Then I Googled it upward and yes it was the thing at the origin of the problem.

  • Windows Driver LSI_SAS, performance and Storport hotfix

    While the investigation on a Windows 2008 R2 VM disk performance issue, I recently came across the following article on a Storport driver updated for Windows 2008 R2, indicating that it could greatly affect storage performance (see below). It seems really interesting, but I have a few questions (1), the driver uses LSI_SAS Storport? and (2) someone has already tried this update?

    Computer intermittently gives bad results or stops responding when the Storport driver is used in Windows Server 2008 R2

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2468345

    Consider the following scenario:

    • You install some storage devices high performance on a computer that is running Windows Server 2008 R2. For example, you install a RAID adapter based on the host or a Fibre Channel adapter that can access more than 4 gigabytes (GB) on a computer that is running Windows Server 2008 R2.
    • The Storport.sys is used to manage these storage devices.
    • The computer has more than 4 GB of physical memory.
    • You install an application or a service that uses a large amount of memory on the computer.

      For example, you install SQL Server or Exchange Server on the computer.

    In this scenario, the computer may intermittently mediocre performance or stop responding for a while.

    For example, the computer stops responding for 10 to 20 seconds.

    The VM problem details:


    > More of these events: 129 LSI_SAS / o \Device\RaidPort3, restore the device, has been published.

    > Server must be restarted to solve the problem

    Which version of the lsi_sas driver are you using? the windows 2008 thunk it should use (stupid windows)

    I've dealt with this for almost a year now. Always high io, high cpu 129 sql servers (resets) boom without box.

    I swiched a paravirtual VMware machines and I can replicate the problem. Made me to google:

    lsi_sas restore the switch of the paravirtual device solves the problem. Who grew up gold: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2063346

    IM leaving a machine on paravirtual but I changed the machines during a new driver that I found on the site of lsi 1.34.3.0 of the 13/06/2011, which is over where, they say, the error is corrected.

    None are repeated on the new boxes of pilot, but it might be too early. The paravirtual box but I consider a success, he'd die 2 times every weekend, but not after the new controller.

    Ive joined the pilot is not the easiest to find.

  • Failure of the Windows Configuration when performing disk recovery system.

    I have a HP Pavilion model: A6838F product number: NC839AA #ABA, Serial #{removed privacy}, BIOS: V5.36 12/01/09

    The drive has been recently replaced by a 750 GB Hitachi PN. 0F131179, SN. 5V06D3ZL

    750 GB MLC:MRS5Q0 FW:5 Q 0 LBA:1.465.149.168 sectors CHS: 16383/16/63

    New recovery discs were recently acquired by HP PN. 530238-001 build ID: 92NAv6PrA2, which corresponds to the identifier of the version on the sticker at the bottom of the CPU.

    The recovery disks starts as expected and ran through all three discs and ask to remove then restarted the system and continued the installation. Everything seemed to work as expected until the part of the process where it indicates that the process is to configure windows for my computer - "Please wait while windows configures your computer." follow-up by "end of installing windows... installation." and so on...

    After a while, the system displays a window indicating "Installation of Windows could not configure windows to run on this hardware of computers". It seems that the system is built almost and you have to configure windows, but he can't. Attempts to start the drive puts me in the loop where the system tries to configure Windows and fails.

I installed my new win 7 64 bit 1 and was a bit off on how he has been slow to version beta on a platform nearly 5 years I used 7800GTX Athlon 64 4200, as what are you do looks great and moves faster than this in. * Vista.

    Hello microblackhole,

    I understand that Windows 7 gaming performance do not meet the requirements you're looking for.

    I wish to inform you that with Windows 7, you get to use 4 GB of Random Access Memory.

    The major problem with your computer, it seems that there are a few old games that break with blue screens.

    Windows 7 comes with Direct X 10 preinstalled. So you should try to understand what are the games that are broken.

    Here are a few methods that you can analyze the reasons why the games are block:

    Compatibility:

    Check if the games are compatible with Windows 7. You can run the troubleshoot compatibility utility to discover the solutions to run the games:

    1. open the program compatibility problems by clicking on the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type troubleshooting, and then click Troubleshooting.

    2. under programs, click on run programs for previous versions of Windows.

    Read this article which will give you more information about this:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-program-compatibility-Troubleshooter

    Analyze the event viewer:

    I suggest you analyze the event viewer to find what could be causing the crash games.

    1. open the start menu and type event viewer in the start menu search bar. Open event viewer from the menu.
    2. in the case of Viewer click Windows logs in the left panel.
    3. click on application under Windows Logs logs.
    4. search for the error messages listed in the event viewer window Central Panel and double-click on the error to check if it log is related to games that are broken.
