I have a computer that when ever you bring a program up it sounds like the 
processor is about to take off.  It gets real loud.  If you look at the task 
manager it has a program about 99%.  If you add more memory will it fix the 
problem.

  Probably not.

  That's not a very informative answer, of course, but your question
isn't very informative, either.  We're not psychic.  Give us
information to work with.  Like, maybe, oh, I dunno, the model of
computer, existing specs, OS and version, program name, etc...

Processors themselves don't make noise. Is it the CPU fan? Check to see if 
the PCU fan is running, or dirty with dust and running harder because of 
heating.

I'd still like to know what program is taking up 99% of the processor.
Memory won't help much if the CPU can't handle the load.

2008-05-21 Thread Terry Dickson
You are correct, but my first option would be to monitor it and see what
is using the CPU at the time to see why it is spiking?  Could it be an
antivirus spike as the antivirus solution is checking the file or files
as the app is launching.

Based on my own (all too recent) experience, I'd guess it's either an 
svchost process or a rogue installer.  It's a shame he didn't say what 
a program meant...

Despite the gracious nature of our host and my general satisfaction with 
the product, CounterSpy and other security apps sometimes get hung this 
way.
