| | CPU load about 50% when system is idle Hi, I installed Vista recently and now, when I've got all updates and I've installed few programs into Windows like Visual Studio, Mobile Device Center, some SDKs etc, every time the system is idle the CPU load is 50%, not exactly, but about 50%. So I've tried to determine which process makes this CPU load. After Alt Ctrl Delete and Task Manager I haven't got to know anything. I've installed Process Explorer from Sysinternals. He told me process "System" makes this high load. I've tried to "kill" process "System". Yes, load felt down. But this isn't solution because after reboot it's the same. Please could you help me? Thanks Josef Donoval |

| | RE: CPU load about 50% when system is idle I had similar issues that appeared after I put the computer to sleep and then after waking up it showed around 50% CPU usage. The CPU usage was around zero when I started the computer from scratch. Finally found that the culprit was my external USB hub (DYNEX). I removed the hub and had no more problems. I am now using the 2 front hubs on the computer (Inspiron 530). Hope this helps. -- Hubert Retired and liking it "Fesoj" wrote: Quote: > Hi, > > I installed Vista recently and now, when I've got all updates and I've > installed few programs into Windows like Visual Studio, Mobile Device > Center, some SDKs etc, every time the system is idle the CPU load is 50%, > not exactly, but about 50%. > > So I've tried to determine which process makes this CPU load.

| | Re: CPU load about 50% when system is idle Thank you for idea, but it don't work. I don't have anything in my USB ports. It’s just a laptop with Lan cable connected.

| | Re: CPU load about 50% when system is idle SoundMAXpnp4.exe was giving me these issues before with my ASUS Board. Check your processes to see if you have a particular device driver causing the problem. I disabled it with msconfig and the problem was gone with sound still working just fine.
