I have an issue with my mouse, when I move it, it causes a CPU spike, in resource monitor, it calls the spike "system interrupt". I recently installed windows 7 and it has been this way since the beginning. Interestingly, when I click and drag, it becomes around 100% cpu usage. My idle cpu is 1-3%.
my g5 laser mouse on windows 7 causes a massive cpu spike. as a side note, when i click and drag, it can cause full usage of cpu.also, although i can play videos, after some time, my computer can only hear sound from Internet videos, and not see visuals.i recently installed from windows 32 bit vista, where i did not have this issue. i installed all recent updates, and used system file checker to verify the system files.
i have got some problem on the mouse pointer, after start the windows, and run few minutes, the size of the pointer just changed bigger itself, i haven't do anything, just use my PC as normal (e.g. after restart just open firefox and get onto internet), but few minutes later it just become bigger, i have try to go to system to set the Scheme but it just stay the same. can anyone help?
p.s. i'm not sure about this, but seems this happened when i use firefox when i scroll up and down on it, it was fine yesterday, but today i had few changing on my PC, first is i have change my display card from 2600 pro to 5700, second is firefox updated to 3.5.5, i'm not sure whether those effect anything.
p.p.s. my mouse is logitech MX1000 on ps2 port, with installed logitech setpoint 4.80, here are some picture for reference, hope someone can help my with this issue, i just want it to be small.., thanks alot~
more information, after the mouse pointer size increased, when i hold the left click on the top bar of the open box to move it, the size of the pointer will back to normal (just when i hold it to move something), but when i release the mouse, the size of the pointer will change back to bigger....-____-""
I am currently using 54% of my ram somehow. I think I have a lot of useless programs and files, is there any software that cleans out my pc..? I got 6gb ram (1333mhz).
But all of a sudden my computer just start using 100% cpu constantly. like it never goes down to an idle percentage. It is really getting annoying with the fan super fast and loud.
Out of nothing my CPU run at 100% and explorer was using 98%. I had to end task my explorer each time I try to delete files from desktop or when I refresh my desktop. I tried few ways including clean reboot (only system files running), clear temp data using ccleaner, scan using online scanner and vundofix (both didn't found any virus/trojan).

My computer is running all the time over 50%. AMD 4x, W764, 2x hd 1 tb, ram 8 gb. MS Office, CS5, acrobat, pinnacle, etc. I have Avast and MS Defender. I have made twice online scanning with Fsecure and AVG. I have made weekly scanning with System Mechanic, CCleaner, Adware and Spybot. Nothing serious found ever.This problem came when I changed the system hd (C:) 40 Gb -> 1000 Gb and reinstalled W7. Now the Hd (C:) runs all the time, but what? I stopped all Adobe programs (Photoshop / Acrobat) and this decreased cpu usage to about 40-60%. When only 2 services was running (Avast and CatalystContrCentr) cpu runs still too much 10-30%. I made a repair W7 installation, but nothing better.

Some days ago I noticed after a couple of minutes I start mi PC, my CPU usage goes to a constant 100% , so I checked for viruses and such but MSE gave me nothing and neither Malwarebytes. Here's the weird thing, I checked the Task Manager to see witch process was causing this and it's always a different process (Sometimes MsMpEng.exe, sometimes dwm.exe and even taskmgr.exe itself) so I started killing processes like a maniac leaving just the few essential ones but nothing changed. I also stopped all the services with a delayed start, since the problem starts after a couple of minutes but the problem was still there. My system restore is disabled.
Computer has been running slow, so this is what I come across: the Memory is Pegged at almost 100% usage. I've got 4 gigs and this is what it looks like right after startup. I also went into Norton and checked it and apparently my Ram has been like this almost for a month. (I got an SSD and did a clean install and it appears to have run ok for a few days and then you can see its pegged out.
When idle, my cpu usage is around 20%, which is allot more than it should be in my opinion. Whenever I start a game, Battlefield : Bad Company 2 which is the game I've been playing allot lately, my cpu usage doesnt come down from the 90's %. It just stays there and it often goes to 99% and stays there, once again. I've been running the game at a 20 fps average. When I could run games like far cry 2, cod mw , nfs shift and so on with settings on high with an average of 40 fps.
I just bought a new Dell Studio laptop with Windows 7 installed. At the bottom right of the IE 8 explorer window is a number (change zoom level). I like it set at 125% and to stay at that number. Whenever I am working in my email on IE, the number will change on its own and I have to set back to 125%. Is there a way to set this number ar 125% an have it stay at that number?
I've reinstall my Windows 7. But now i don't know the reason why my CPU always show that 100% CPU, even when starting! I've found that in window task manager there are three processes: cmd.exe, cmd.exe*32 and again,cmd.exe, (I don't run them) and if I end them CPU usage will be normal.
I have an HP G62 laptop and it has been running wonderfully for a year, it is a farely new computer. Then last week it was been running terrible slow due to the physical memory being almost 95% used. 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.
When I try to backup my desktop, it gets to 42% and it stops, I have tried several times, it's a new computer, my 1st backup went smooth, but now I can't get it to finish.
I am using win7. I get the msg backup your files. I start the process and get goes to 25% and sits there for a short while then it goes to 50% and stays there over 10 hrs. I get no other msg or requests for a cd or anything. I have done this for a dozen or so attempts to back up with same results each time.
It got stuck at 15%. So I rebooted into Safe Mode, tried System Restore. It failed, so I tried System Recovery Options, that failed too. Then I rebooted it regularly and it tells me that, in fact, System Restore worked. Now what do I do? (Besides backup my stuff.) Try to update Windows manually or do I need to do something before that?
I currently connect my LG Flatron W2361V Monitor & my HD 5830 GPU with a HDMI cable, however some times when I turn my monitor off & come back to turn it on it takes a long time to pic up a signal & when it does system feels slow. However after checking the Catalyst Control Centre is showed my GPU Activity was 99% & it stops like that until I reboot.
I have Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit with 6 GB of Ram and SSD. After restarting the comp, the memory use is around 23% (of 6 GB). After working on it for a while, running browsers, spreadsheets, playing a game the memory use just pretty high (with just a few browsers open and Football Manager around 80%).
However, the problem begins when I close all the programs, essentially going to fresh, post restart state. In this idle state, the memory use if just over 60%. This obviously seems wrong. This is over 60% use of physical memory. What is the issue here, memory leak or something else. Occasionally, when I have a bunch of things opened, the computer will hang because the memory use is at the peak.
I'm having problems with windows media player on windows 7. I've now had 4 fresh installs of 7 since its release (4 too many?) and every time i get the same wmp problem its either wmplayer.exe or the sharing service using 25%. I've disabled the media sharing service and disabled it in services window so it no longer runs, I only have one directory in wmp which is D:music on a separate drive from the OS no image or video libraries. Windows search indexer is also gone due to the total i/o causing a real slow system
All the download media info and other settings are disabled too, windows media player should just literally play my music and no more however this does not seem the case, it is also seems to be permanently trying to update my media library which it has done on all 4 installs too. Iremember having this problem too on XP MCE ? I am not sure if I have left any info out but basically I have tried everything I can so far and WMP will always uses 25% of my cpu even after its closed I usually have to kill the process manually.

About 75% (3 out of 4 ave.) of attempts to start / boot results in BSOD right after I enter password to login into my account. The error codes are different sometimes but only one I could catch = "Bad Pool Error". I have added no new hardware. Have tried all I could find for a solution without results. Including Pre-boot sys access 4118, sys file check, full scan for virus several times. all the usual.
It all starts when i try to open one flv video downloaded from you tube to my desktop.when i try to open it in VLC player.it doesn't do anything ,laptop goes hang.I checked my task manager and found that explorer.exe is consuming 100 % of cpu .I exit my explorer by endprocess and later on on activate from new task.I some how manged to delete that file. But now problem is that when i try to open some video file,the moment i right click the file ,explorer.axe goes 100 percent and system hangs.Now every time i have to exit explorer when this happens.Now I am gone mad with this and want to get rid from this . I have found many remedies from net ,but didnt make it all success.
I have just recently upgraded my OS to Windows 7 Home Premium x64 from Vista Home Premium x64 using the Toshiba Windows 7 Laptop Upgrade. I've actually had the choice to upgrade ever since I got the disk around two months ago, but only now did I have enough time to spare to upgrade the system. Anyway, after upgrading to Windows 7, I noticed that my system was noticeably slower than usual. I could open several tabs on Chrome while running other programs on Vista and I would barely lag.
Now, I'm having problems only with a few programs running. I also noticed that my CPU usage was stuck at 100% and it's not going down or anything. My laptop isn't as slow as a rock right now, but something should be causing the processors to be at a constant 100%. My RAM usage is normal. 4 Gigs being used at around 50% right now. I'm just worried that maybe some programs that I had with Vista are slowing down the computer, but I was sure to uninstall or update any incompatible software too.
I'm running on a Core 2 Duo T6500 (2.1Ghz) Processor with 4.00 Gb of RAM. My laptop is around six months old right now.
I have MS Access 2010 & have a database that has been about 45 MB in size for 2 years. About a month ago I noticed it now is 67 MB. I compact & repair every time I save it which is twice a month. I've gone back & did a compact & repair on the 67 MB file but it does not change.
I must have looked at & changed something without realizing it. The actual number of records appears to be correct. How can examine and/or compare tables or other internals between the two sizes? I've seen a program called AccdbMerge come up on a few Google hits & was wondering if anyone ever used it?
I got an Acer Aspire One Happy Netbook yesterday and ever since been trying to install skype. The installation gets to around 30% and then goes back to 0% each time I have tried this. My operating system is Windows 7 Starter - 32 bit.
I have win 7 64 bit and have noticed that once my PC is active for more than a few days, the idle memory usage goes up dramatically. See pic, even with only idle processes, i am using 49% of 4gb ram. When i resart my PC, idle memory usage goes down to around 25%, which is a much more sane number. I've tried using a memory cleaning program called "CleanMem", but it doesn't seem to do anything.....
I'm having trouble with controlling the volume in windows 7. If I'm playing music through either Windows media player or itunes and drag the taskbar volume slider down to 0% I can still hear sound. I've only noticed this problem last night so I thought a system restore to yesterday afternoon would fix it but I've still got the problem. There is a possibility that this problem there since the installation of windows and that I only noticed it last night though.
Some random details: I've noticed that if I open the mixer, all of the levels claim to be on the same volume. Itunes, applications and system volume sliders are all at zero but sound is still playing. If I just click on the itunes slider, the sound disappears completely and 0% volume actually means just that. The problem then is that the slider is then independent to the master volume slider and I have to adjust the volume for itunes every time.

My system doesn't even have official Vista drivers from Dell so if the problem was there since before last night then it's probably due to the drivers. If that is the case, is there anything that I could do (other than a system upgrade)?
