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... -- Ben ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja!~ ~ http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm ~

Check to see if the PCU fan is running, or dirty with dust and running harder because of heating. ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja!~ ~ http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm ~

RE: computer problem
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. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 21, 2008 9:19 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: computer problem Seriously now...

RE: computer problem
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...
