CPU always 100% use

Hello, Can you help me my computer use WinXP SP2
Pro Edition, but I check CPU is use 100% always.

Where can check which process is use 100% ?

I think this process , SPY ?


alg.exe /LOCAL SERVICE
csrss.exe /SYSTEM
lsass.exe /SYSTEM
services.exe /SYSTEM
smss.exe /SYSTEM
wscntfy.exe /SYSTEM


If that file is SPY, can delete it ?

Please!

 

Press Ctrl+Alt+Del all at the same time. That gets you the Task Manager.

Click on the header named CPU and the largest user will come to the top. If not, click it again. Then tell us what is hogging the cpu time.

You are most likely having a visit by some malware - Adware or virus. Run your AV and check things out. Run AdAware or Spybot to clean anything that the AV misses. If still no joy, run HiJackThis and post the log to the Security forum here. You can find links to those softwares in the Security forum as well.

Hello, can you tell me if Windows 98, that Autoexec.bat and Config.sys is FIRST doing, when finish goto Windows 98 system.

but Windows XP , that Autoexec.bat and Config.sys is disable ?

Because my computer in DOS mode can't use USB keybaord, I think

Or can you tell me ...
(1) open computer can checking
(2) BOOT XP
(3) If autoexec.bat and config.sys found, doing fist
(4) If unstable shutdown, run CHKDSK first
(5) goto winxp system. (check login, run desktop...)

Done!

Correct ?

System Idle Process / SYSTEM
taskmgr.exe /myname

cmd is SPY ?

Please!

 

You didn't give me any numbers for the cpu usage. Normally you can expect the System Idle Process will be at 97% or above. You seem to indicate that cmd.exe is the biggest user. It shouldn't be running under most normal sessions. Highlight it and click on the End Process button See what that does to tame things down.

And no, cmd.exe is generally not a gremlin, it's the command prompt emulator for XP. You need to run msconfig and see what you have in the Start Up tab that may be causing this problem.

 

yes fix, try END (CMD.exe) kill , is normal now.

but reboot windows again, "CMD.exe" is back ! and in Msconfig no found any cmd.exe process ? is regedit can help me ?

Please!

 

It will be most helpful if you will get something like StartupControl and run it to see just what is calling for the command prompt at startup. That way you can be spared the risk of Registry editing.
