Re: CPU memory always statys at 100% during browsing

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Yes, you told us that already, but you didn't provide the info I asked for. CPU usage at 100% tells us nothing useful, you need to open task manager and see which process is causing that usage, or even better, download and run process explorer and look for the process causing the problem.

This is my home system adn I just use this for internet. Problem is whenever
I connect to internet and run any sites, CPU memory shoots to 100%
irrespective of which browser I use (IE, Firefox, Opera). CPU cycles shows
the process of browser which I am connected to (If Internet explorer, then
IEXPLORER.exe > 90%)

Which process is using the CPU cycles? Do you have an HP printer?
