Windows 7 X64 Computer Idles With 18.5GB Of RAM Usage
Dec 18, 2011
It appears as if if I have a huge memory leak as a fresh boot with minimal start-up programs idles at 1.85gb used... nothing showed in task monitor so I dug deeper with RamMap... I've included a bunch of screen shots and can't for the life of me figure out what this is. I've uninstalled anything I didnt use + cleaned all the temp files and cache + ran Malware + did a virus scan.

Whenever my PC is idle for a while (haven't timed it but I think it's about 30 min.) it will switch to the blue login screen. I've never actually seen the login screen since I don't use a password, but I'm assuming it is. Blue screen, shows my name and icon, ease of use button on bottom left, etc. Anyways, I don't really want Windows to DO this, so can someone tell me where I can change those settings? I already tried changing all of the Power settings but it still does it. Oh, BTW I do not use a screen saver either.

I have screensaver disabled through personalize menu and command prompt. I have sleep/hibernation disabled through power options and reg edit. I have every power option set to not hibernate, sleep, go to screen saver, or anything. I have disabled every possible thing I could find that would cause a blank, black screen to appear whenever I don't touch my pc for an amount of time. And yet, I still get the black screen when my pc is idle. Why? How can I stop it? It's annoying and I have zero interest in having it.

My problem is that my computer is very slow on startup and in general even though very little resources are being used. In the task manager the CPU usage rarely exceeds 10%. I have disabled all unessential startup programs and services and have defragged my HDD. There's a very little possibility of malware as i run Avast! which is fully updated.
Specs:
MS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
Intel Pentium T4500 @ 2.30GHz(49 �C Average)(>10%)
174GB free in HDD.
4.00 GB DDR2 (22% used on idle)

I am looking for a program which can effectively monitor the time a user spends on a computer, perhaps by looking at keystrokes/mouse movements, or something else...either way, I'd like to be able to compare the usage time on several computers. If I could monitor these times remotely, that would be great, but it is not necessary. It would also be great if rather than just saying "user x spend y time on the computer today", it would log it, so say between what times the user was active.

I'm looking for a powerful software that will limit my own computer usage, of course on an administrator account. For example let's say from now until one month later I limit computer usage for one hour a day, since I decide and confirm my decision to the software it will be impossible to change my mind under any circumstances, until the time limit has expired. I know how to fix computer time. But I cannot find this software!!!!!! ALL software's are made for parental control (don't word on administrator account or changed easily) but I could find no program to limit computer addiction!

As the title suggests, my cpu usage is high and the computer is running slow and lagging, ex. itunes skipping, etc. I have deleted programs, ran spyware and antivirus programs, and ended services and applications in msconfig.

recently reformatted and already experiencing drastic slowdown as soon as windows comes up, including repeated lockups with multiple various programs reporting that they are not responsive, then recovering after 10-30 seconds. ive checked memory and hard drive both of which come out fine. despite my plethura of worthless antiviral software im forced to assume that my illicit downloading practices have lead me into some comp trouble that i cant seem to determine. i have used ccleaner, search and destroy and malware bytes, all of which have found nothing to indicate what is causing this massive slowdown. in addition according to my resource manager my computer is operating at a load of only 30-50 percent CPU useage and 60 ram useage but taking 5-10 seconds to load files and open folders, and repeated lockups of multiple programs, especially firefox which seems to go unresponsive every 2-3 minutes. i used a program called OTL by old timer, but cant make any sense of the results i was given.

i was looking at a Internet video of how to use hjt and it said to checkmark everything and hit fix; my computer was running perfectly fine 2 weeks ago with games running at 30 fps and really little lag but suddenly has been running extremely slow with long wait times and 2 fps so i decided to follow the video. after hitting fix everything my computer seems to be running a bit better but i'm not exactly sure if anything has been fixed. now my concern is: should i restore back to before i 'fixed' everything?

When I first boot up the machine and start using it (win 7 ultimate 64bit) the memory usage stays arround 40%. If I keep using it, the memory usage will slowly increase until it reaches 99%. If I boot up the machine and just leave it there for a couple of hours, the same happens.I try to restart (via windows), it logs off, shuts down the system, the coolers keep spinning, the motherboard lights are still on, but it doesn't boot up again. It remains like that. I have to restart via reset button or power button.

My Audiodg.exe process is currently using 2,786,070 kB (not just normal bytes, kilobytes) of Ram. 2.66gb+ of Ram! I have searched the web as well as this site for any problems. My audio is working fine though... I have no idea why this using so much ram. Im guessing a memory leak of some kind... I restartand it starts off at a normal pace...

My Windows 7 laptop has recently been through about a half-dozen supposed "fixes" to malware and registry repairs. It is still running high CPU cycles. How can I fix it (preferably without paying for anything)? I have AVG and will purchase their PC TuneUp when I get a chance, and I just bought SpeedyPC earlier tonight.So, I don't want to spend more money. I have tried Spybot, Malwarebytes, and another one (can't remember).

I recently purchased a small laptop (ASUS X43U increased RAM 4GB) and only in the past 2 weeks or so the CPU usage has been fluctuating up to 100% and as low as 4% ish. The computer is making this horrible noise all the time (I've been told its the cooling fan..) and is driving me insane. I have a fully up to date antivirus software, no games or additives installed, and really only ever have 1 or 2 windows of Google Chrome open at one time.

Recently installed the 64 bit Windows 7 beta, and my CPU usage is constantly at or near 100%, even with no external programs running. Just to give a quick run-down of my system, I have:-- AMD Athlon 64 3200+ Processor (2.2 GHz)-- 2GB DDR RAM-- 1GB Diamond Radeon 3650HD Video CardThe rest of my setup is a basic desktop machine -- plenty of storage space, etc. It runs XP Professional (32-bit) just fine. I installed the Vista x64 driver for my video card last night; it installed successfully, but did not seem to help much.

i was planning on buying a new pc, prefrably for gaming. However i have read that windows 7 requires up to 2GB of RAM to use. Now lets say i bought a pc with 3 gb of RAM, if i went to play a game would it only be able to access 1gb of ram due to the other 2gb being used for windows 7?
