RE: Constant CPU Usage
Check your system logs. I had a similar issue and was able to track it to a
faulty NIC driver (Marvel Yukon). The driver installed OK, but was generating
hundreds of error messages a minute. Once I disabled it, CPU useage droped to
5% or less when I was idle. I am on AMD 64 X2 4200 with 4 gigs of ram. VIA
chipset.
