Dudley,
Thanks for the response, but Process Explorer show the top two CPU usages as System Idle and Interrupts !
  Strange..
Luckily, a reboot fixes it and PSDR continues to run in spite of it.. I doubt if earlier versions of PSDR would.

Al,

If you open Task manager, to Show process (for all users, checked at the bottom) If you click the "CPU" title at the top, the highest CPU usage process will start at the top. Eating that much CPU should be easy to determine which process is causing the big CPU burn. Hopefully is something that you will recognize, at least in Win7 you can do a right click and it will tell you from which folder that process came from. Things like remote control SW (VNC variants) can go into the weeds from time to time, or some driver with a memory leak.

Hope this helps.

         This is a bit off-topic but...
         I am having a problem with, what appears, to be a torrent of
    interrupts consuming 50% of CPU...  They arrive after several
    hours of operation and don't really seem to effect current
    versions of PSDR.
         Once in the torrent mode, I can shut down all apps,
    disconnect all external hardware ( except the monitors ) and the
    interrupt portion of the the CPU usage remains at 40-50% ( as
    reported by Process Explorer ).
         Is there any debugging app for WinXP available that will
    indentify the source of interrupts ?
