After opening and closing out of any program, my processor monitor is
running from 60 to 80+ % w/ just an open desktop. If I open RealPlayer then
close back to desktop then open say Media player and view a video clip my
system advises that I am using max of processor and to close media player
down. It's a 1.5GHz Intel Celeron M and the video card has it's own 64MB of
memory and the system has 750+ MB of memory and Ive closed out and opened
these programs before w/ no problems . The processor monitor would be right
down to 1-4% once back to the desktop. What can I do to fix this as rebooting
and going to the simplest program does the same thing to the CPU. Help !
