Re: Unexplained CPU Usage

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



If you are using Windows XP Home Edition you may need to Download Tasklist.exe.

Tasklist.exe available here:
http://www.computerhope.com/download/winxp.htm

To benefit from David's advice you need to select Start, Run, type "Cmd" without the quotes to get a Command Prompt. At the Command Prompt type "cd\" without the quotes and hit ENTER. Then type "tasklist /svc" without the quotes and hit ENTER.

It's there I encountered a problem and I am hoping to see a further message from David Candy on how to resolve the problem.

BTW to exit from a Command Prompt type "exit" without the quotes and hit ENTER

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the replies.
TASKLIST doesn't seem to be on my system.
I did a dir task*.exe /s and only get taskman or taskmgr.
I am not running any sound apps. This occurs when NO apps are running.
I did look in the SYSTEM event log and found some ERRORS from DCOM, acpi and
SCM. Gotta go research them and possible causes.
I am beginning to think it is a hardware(interrupt) situation. I am saying
this because the clock is loosing time.


Any extra input welcome!

Thanks, Tom
