    My PC is running Me, and runs VERY slow. I installed the System Monitor, and have discovered that the processor is always at 100% . Is there any other tool in Windows (or for Windows) that will indicate WHICH processes are consuming the system resources?

    Thank you.

    Wintop (tho' aimed at Win95 it'll run perfectly well under ME).

    Thanks, I'll certainly check that out. I just had found a monitoring tool called "Process Explorer" from Sysinternals. I downloaded that, and ran it. It didn't indicate to me anything unusual CPU usage-wise, so I'm wondering if the System Monitor tool's indication of 100% is bogus.

    I also noticed that the System Monitor was showing a lot of page faults, so I guess I'lll have to investigate that. Do you know of any monitoring tool that will display the page faulting of individual processes?

    ‘Fraid not. Maybe run Wintop and see whether that mirrors Process Explorer’s results. Some system specs could help too.
