High RAM Usage

Nov 18, 2009

I just reformatted my computer to windows 7.

And i'm kinda disappointed on its performance compared to some reviews i've seen in the web.
It seems that my computer consumes alot of RAM if i'm not mistaken.

Here are my processes and memory usage:

i have 4gb ram installed, but i installed win7 x32bit.

So when i on photoshop or other program that uses alot memory, the ram usage goes to 1.6-1.8 GB.
And during that time i felt some lag.

Windows 7 Sp1 High Cpu Usage (35%) High System Interupts

Mar 22, 2011

I just installed windows 7 ultimate sp1 - Like the title says I'm seeing 35% cpu usage with nothing going on. I googled around and ran traces to see which driver it was, turned out the ahci driver was doing it. The USB driver showed similarly high latency but that can be delt with later. Most forums recommend upgrading your drivers but this problem has stayed constant both with microsoft's stock drivers for everything and after running windows built in search for drivers even after I manually grabbed the latest drivers for everything. url...BIOS is up to date4 GB RAM - Corsair something or otherEVGA Geforce 8800 GT450W psu1 DVD burner (sata)5 hard drives (sata) plugged into all but the first sata port because that caused nothing but headaches for me. Update - switching from AHCI to IDE in BIOS fixed the problem.

RAM Usage Is So High?

Jan 4, 2012

Whenever I am on my computer My RAM usage is really high. More than I think I could ever use up! When I am not on an App/ Browser my RAM Usage is still above 50-60%. I also think my internet connection has something to do with it because when ever I try to load a video/website it takes more than 10minutes to load a 30 second video!

CPU Usage Seems Too High?

Jan 29, 2013

I don't know if I'm just overthinking/worrying too much about my laptop, but my CPU usage lately seems to idle between 10 and 30% even when I'm not doing much. I've noticed that TeaTimer.exe (Spybots real time protection) seems to hog some of this, and I'm not sure if I need it since I have Malwarebytes and SuperAntiSpyware installed. I've also noticed Firefox to be very laggy but this could well be a seperate issue. Also on startup my computer does seem to take up to five minutes to settle down after logging in.What can I do or what should I be checking?

Here's my system information:

Tech Support Guy System Info Utility version 1.0.0.2
OS Version: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium, Service Pack 1, 64 bit
Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) II P340 Dual-Core Processor, AMD64 Family 16 Model 6 Stepping 3

Very High Cpu Usage (60-100%)?

Jun 12, 2012

Lately, the cpu usage on my laptop goes very high without no reason. It sometimes bursts from 10 to 100 percent without any apparent reason. Looking into the task manager and sorting the procceses by cpu usage reveals that no single process uses very much cpu,instead about 10-15 percent is used by multiple services each.I run an Asus laptop k73s with an i5 2430m proccesor, an nvidia gt540m, 4 gigabytes of ram and windows 7 ultimate 64 bit. I tried everything from doing registry cleaning and repairing to disk formatting and virus and malware scans. Each attempt to no avail.

High DPC/IR Cpu From Network Usage?

Sep 5, 2011

I have noticed when Iam downloading at full speed of 1.8MB/s on Wifi or LAN there is high DPC/IR (Deferred Procedure Calls and Interrupt Requests) CPU usage - and when transferring files in or out to USB hdd.. i sometimes get pops & clicks in audio too - the CPU is a Turion 1.8Ghz x2 with 1Mb L2 cache and 2Gb of ram, DPC/IR can only be seen using Resource Monitor in windows 7 (type 'resource monitor' into startsearch) or using Process Explorer software, I dont know much about DPC/IR but as far as Im aware it handles errors or something like that and I was told it should never even go beyond 1% cpu usage - its more noticeable on laptops as these have CPUs that arent as powerfull as desktops and have wifi, it seems to be worse with wifi. it causes latency problems in windows too and things like audio playback get pops & clicks and windows & apps become sluggish.

What brought it too my attention was the CPU fan on my laptop was on all the time and windows seemed to be sluggish when I was downloading even though uTorrent was just using 3-5% CPU, I noticed the total at bottom of Task Manager seemed to be more than what would tally up in the window, it was when i used resource monitor that I seen it.

WiFi @ 1.8MB/s = 10-15% DPC/IR cpu usage
LAN @ 1.8MB/s = 5% DPC/IR cpu usage

Copying Files to USB HDD = 15% DPC/IR cpu usage (this test was odd as it was some time ago i done this one, but I remember it was either IN or OUT that had the increase, probably IN (and OUT was <1%) , I tried SDcard too and got varying results)ive even seen it max at 40% when downloading on wifi and copying a file in/out too usb hard-drive at the same time...

Win X64 General High Ram Usage

Jan 12, 2010

I was using vista x86 up untill windows 7 came out, it was the I decided to go for my first x64 operating system. I have an i7 and 3gb ram.

Ever since I've moved over, games take up a stupid amount of memory, they'll go to 80 - 90%. I recently decided to install Crysis Warhead as I never got round to completing it, last time I played it I was on vista x86 and it ran fine. However now, it takes forever to load and/or freezes because there's no memory left.

I've tried setting the page file at 200 - 1024, 1024 - 1024 and turning it off, none of that makes a difference. I tried increasing it to 4096-4096 just out of curiosity, that managed to load the game, however, while I did have a constant 50-60fps I was lagging really badly and had 91% ram usage.

Am I missing something here, does anyone else have this issue?

Laptop Has High CPU Usage When On Standby?

Jun 8, 2011

I have a Lenovo laptop with Win 7 Pro.

When I leave the laptop on standby, and come back to it after 10 minutes, the fans are blowing loudly. I have a CPU gadget which monitors CPU usage, and I see that right when I resume from standby (move the mouse), CPU usage drops to normal.

At first I thought Security Essentials is doing some scanning or windows is indexing some files, but this happens every time the computer is idle for longer than 10 minutes. I have a suspicion that my laptop could be part of a bot network.

CPU Usage High - Slow Laptop?

Jul 16, 2012

system: inspiron 1420 windows 7 issue: suddenly slow system (cpu usage usually raises to 100% when opening any programs such as a web browser, then dips back down when everything is loaded enough) attempted solutions: anti-virus, malware, anti-spyware programs | chkdsk, sfc /scannow |memory diagnostics | adjusting appearance | using task manager to locate highest cpu usage program (none of these attempts have identified the problem.)my system which is a dell inspiron 1420 windows 7 was recently given a clean install to windows 7 from vista. everything was going fine for about two weeks when suddenly everything started to become sluggish.now when i for instance open a video on Internet, the video will buffer, and while that's happening the audio that plays sounds like a droning machine as if it was being disconnected from the matrix, ha. after the video loads enough, the sounds remains normal. not only that, but the mouse will stop, stutter, freeze, then continue after the video has loaded enough to where the mouse can move again. i'm also experiencing freezes on this machine, and usually when the computer does freeze the mouse pointer disappears.

i have already tried many things, such as running anti-virus, malware, and anti-spyware programs which had all come up with no threats. i've run chkdsk, sfc /scannow (which did in fact find corrupt files, but they were unable to be repaired. if anyone can tell me how to repair those files that cannot be repaired, i would appreciate it), and i've also done memory diagnostics, all of which are not identifying with the problem i'm having.

Intermittent High Memory Usage?

Oct 21, 2012

I have a Sony with win 7 64-bit and 4 gigs of ram. About a month ago I started to notice my computer running slower. When I checked windows task manager (performance) it was using 3.5 gigs of my memory. I restarted the computer and it went down to 1.5. I have on occasion had to restart twice to get the memory down. I have run virus checks and reg cleaner but it still occurs.

Network Usage Causes High DPC Latency

Jan 6, 2010

After about 24 hours of booting my computer, I have seen my DPC Latency spike tremendously. At first, I thought this was an issue with my network card (since disabling it would drop DPC Latency), so I bought a new card. The problem didn't go away, so I realized it was something else. High DPC Latency is a problem since it causes audio and video lag.

As I troubleshooted the issue, I have realized the spikes were caused from network activity. For example, when I am seeding [not necessarily uploading] many torrents or am loading a website, it shoots up.

Does anyone know what may cause this and how I could prevent it?

High CPU Usage Java Binary?

Jun 5, 2011

i will start with the fact that there is a software that i use which uses java. It's been running fine until today. whenever i open the application i get a warning come up on the bottom right hand of the screen saying that java se binary is using a cpu usage of 100%. And it's causing the software that i use to slow down and what have you and the fan goes mad. It also does it on other applications ie windows movie player, sims 3 and a few other games only occasionally. It shouldnt be doing this as my computer is near enough new. I'm running windows 7 x64 bit AMD Athalon II P320 Dual-Core Processor 2.10GB Memory/Ram 3.00GB Display Adapter ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4200 Series?When these applications run the java binary says Java se Binary is not responding. Yet when it does it is killing my cpu.I can't see how there is a problem with my computer as it was only repaired 3 weeks ago because the hdd failed on it after only 6 months.All my drivers are up to date so are the plug ins so am now starting to wonder if it is the java program.

I have an i5 processor and 3GB of RAM and all i use this for is for school, I have all microsoft tools (word, powerpoint, etc.) and I don't game on this computer. I have been deleting unnecessary programs and defragmenting but it hasn't seemed to change anything. I have Norton 360 and i dont think I have a virus, or maybe i do??? My computer takes extremely long amounts of time to open internet explorer, itunes, or anything.
