I have this strange problem. Randomly some program or another would stop responding while using around 50% of processor usage. If I kill that unresponsive processes then the next used processes (say I switch to thunderbird window thereafter, or back to opera) then that next program would stop responding at 50% CPU usage. The solution is just to restart windows xp. However, if instead of killing the unresponsive program, suspending it (I use process explorer) would free up the CPU usgae, and everything woud continue running smoothly!
Soon as i turn it on the antivirus starts up and my broadband connects then it freezes, a few times i've managed to open the task manager and i notice that on the CPU Usage History it it constantly at 100% and when i go onto the Processes tab instead of System Idle it is SVCHOST.EXE that is using all the CPU.
I thought it was a virus so i started my PC in safe mode and run the virus scanner, it found 3 Trojan Horse Downloaders, one even named itself CMD.exe which i thought would of cured the problem but ive turned it on this morning and it is still the same, it seems a little better and lasts longer before crashing but it still crashes eventually.
i clicked on something and it took me to a entire different site . Shortly after winalmond came up on my security program. I assume it is a bug. But the next day i turned my comp on and evrythings gone.After 5 mins it all comes up. But then if i click on a program it takes forever to come up and then distorts Then it comes up nionresponsive. I think my comps stuffed .scanned through with all my security programs and it hasnt changed. also deleted my cookines and temp files and cleared up disc space. Also my toolbar and all my icons disapear on and offf when my comps on. Interent explorer works fine.
I'm having a lot of trouble just in the last few days. I have a VAIO Laptop (model number is in my info) running Windows XP with SP2. I come home and get the start up screen for Windows XP (the running time meter on the bottom) that stays there for about 5 minutes. I shut it off, rebooted and it was an extended time, but it finally went. Upon the login screen, I log in and the melody it makes for logging on is cut halfway through, as if someone yanked the cord on speakers. Everything is running extremely slow. When I try to actually do anything, the program pretty much becomes non-responsive. Sometimes tryin to End Program on the non-responsive program will not work. The info box asking to send info over the internet appears, however teh program is still running. McAfee virus scanned, first time brought up 11 or 12 items, however I had to go and ended the scan, I dont know if it deleted/quarantined the items or not, but the next time I came home and tried it only found 1 item, which was just a cookie. Also, the scan took upwards of 3-4 hours...Also, my CPU Usage is idling and roaming (currently) around 85-100% which I know is bad. Can't really tell which Process is causing all the usage. Not even running any programs, it is hovering up in those high numbers. The 100% is not a peak either, it stays up there for a while.

I recently had to re-install Windows XP, and now when the computer comes back from sleep the taskbar is at the top of the screen and is non-responsive leading me to have to restart my computer every time it goes to sleep. The easy answer would to not have the pc go to sleep, so i tried that, and even when it goes to screen saver mode, after being in that for more than 30 minutes, the problem occurs. Anyone have an idea of what is going on?
My friend, who has given a Dell Optiplex GX240 running Win2K Pro. 512MB RAM To help her out, I got rid of porn, viruses, and spyware using: Ad-Aware, AVG spyware and AV free versions, Trend Micro House Call, Spybot I checked the task manager, and has constant 100% CPU usage, avg memory usage The system runs, but apps open slow, so I tried some freeware reg cleaners: CCleaner, Eusing Free Registry Cleaner, Wise Registry cleaner.
I recently installed a winTV card in my computer, ever since that I have noticed that when I press ctrl, alt and delete, the cpu usage appears to be 100% full whenever I try to open an mpeg file I have recorded from the TV card. it is a pentium 4 2.8 ghz processor.
I'm running XP pro SP2. I have a gig of ram and my mother board is an Intel D101GGC. My CPU is Intel Pentium D 920.
If I use Windows Explorer to go deeper than the first level of any tree, CPU usage goes to 100% and stays there. I've disabled System Restore because it wouldn't let me go back in time anyway and this program is a known resource gobbler. Didn't help. I've attached a hijackthis logfile to see if anyone recognizes a Trojan, etc. I would appreciate any help at all.
My CPU Usage always shows 100% and my system is getting very slow although I have not installed any big software and have strong antivirus (symantec) whose definition files are updated .So , why is it happening?
PC Keeps crashing and stuff when it is left alone even for 5 minutes.Sometimes does it when I have several applications running and also during gameplay. It never used to do this. I also have recently installed 2 adventure games, Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Samsung Software.
For about two weeks now my computer keeps crashing every time I turn it on. At first it wouldn't turn off when I go to shut down, then afterwards, it won't boot up normally. I turn it on and it freezes, every time, I have to hold down the power button, wait for a few seconds then try again. It will then boot up or ask to boot up from the Last Known Good. Either way, it will boot, get to the WIndows menu and sometimes crashes again and reboots automatically. I've reported this to Microsoft each time, and I've already re-formatted and re-installed Windows and the problem still persists.
My CPU is constantly 100%. My computer is terribly slow and may applications suddenly crash without warning. Firefox and print shop are the main crashers. I did a clean boot and after that the speed was absolutely fantastic,no crashes and very little CPU Usage. However, as soon as I added any of my essential applications(logmein,trend micro,Google desktop,linksys) the same problem was immediately back. I disabled these programs one by one and it still happens.
I've been experiencing random crashes of Explorer.exe, and when looking at the Application window of the Event Viewer it details this:
Faulting application explorer.exe, version 6.0.2800.1106, faulting module ntdll.dll, version 5.1.2600.1106, fault address 0x00001d24.
I searched around the internet and found no real answer, there's some solutions which require using the Data Execution Prevention tab with SP2, and adding explorer.exe to the list. I plan to try this, but I was wondering, would replacing ntdll.dll with another computer's possibly fix the problem? It's been an annoyance now for a month, and I've ran every virus scan, every spyware/malware/ware-ness program known to man, to no avail.
My Windows Explorer keeps on crashing when ever I do right click in windows explorer.The error shown in the Event Viewer(Application Log) is as follows
Faulting application explorer.exe, version 6.0.2900.3156, faulting module , version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x00000000.
My laptop keeps on crashing, whilst playing on world of warcraft, my laptop just completely switches itself off without warning. As of yet, has only crashed whilst playing wow. This is also not due to overheating, as im using a separate fan unit, after heat issues arose Using an acer laptop - aspire 5610 - with Xp proffesional, media center. Also sometimes, after restarting the laptop, and selecting the screen name, it comes up with my background wallpaper, but no icons, start bar, etc - only way to get rid of this is turning the power button off. Included a hijackthis log (hope i've done it right.
I have been having problems with my computer crashing and switching itself off when I am running my Nortan Internet Security full system scan. It gets to about 8000 files scanned then it crashes and switches off. It has happened at other times today when Norton Scan has not been running as well. I sent the error report and it came back with what is written below.
You received this message because a device driver installed on your computer caused the Windows operating system to stop unexpectedly. This type of error is referred to as a "stop error." A stop error requires you to restart your computer. More information ...
My computer keeps crashing and restarting itself all the time. it also keeps freezing when i am using programs. it doesnt happen with just one program, it happens when i am on the internet too. i have run AVG, spybot search and destroy and spyware blaster but there is nothing coming up as abnormal.
I had bought a Compaq Presario 5013wm a few weeks ago. The system came with Vista. I was having a lot of hardware issues with network and gfx card, so I opted to install XP. Well, XP wouldn't install because I had no floppy disks to load the raid drivers with, so I went under the BIOs and changed it from RAID to IDE. So now XP is on and everythings working... kind of. The problem I seem to be running into is some seemingly random crashes. From what I've noticed, they only happen while playing a game and, very rarely, when playing music. Sometimes I can play for hours and other times, just a few minutes. The graphics card is a Geforce 7300GS and it has the latest drivers along with the audio. Checked the temp and it seems to stay between 64-67C while playing a game, which I hear is normal for my card. The BIOs is still in IDE mode.. not sure if thats an issue.. can't turn it to RAID without a floppy drive -__-;. Upon thinking of it, I doubt that's the issue as the few times I was able to play before uninstalling vista, I recall the same freeze.
This started since I started overclocking my graphics card. I thought might be it but a new symptom occured.First, it started freezing and crashing randomly and I thought it would pass if I stopped overclocking. I took out my graphics card and hoped it would stop.It got worse. What happened was I tried to turn on my computer and it crashed while starting up everytime. I had a bunch of recovery discs so I used them because they worked everytime in the past. Bad idea. I started the recovery process and as soon as it started, my computer crashed. I turned my comp back on but it said there was no OS installed. I tried reformatting and my computer crashed in the middle of that too.At this point I'm really pissed at my computer. I can't reformat. I can't recover. I can't even start up my computer up to the desktop.

Everytime I try and schedule a TV recording in Media Centre (freeview) on my PC, this message appears. If I click on OK to terminate it, it generates a crash error report. I always submit the reports but its not helping the situation. If I click cancel to debug it, this message appears. Can anyone shed some light into why I maybe experiencing this issues? I havent had any problems before like this but I recently changed my broadband provider to Talk Talk but I am very unhappy with the preformance and strength on my wireless network so Im going back to BT
I had to reset the PC at the power button, due to it crashing on me during i was playing a game. When i turned the PC back on again i had lost all the files, pictures, internet history and word documents off my user side of the PC, i checked the other user area and the the files and folders are still intact. The thing that is puzzling me is the fact whenever i save a file/picture/document to my desktop and subsequently turn off the pc after use. It seems to automatically delete the file/picture/document off my desktop and is no were to be found on countless searches i've done on all my harddrives.
Well as the title reads my windows explorer for my sony vaio (running xp) is crashing within 10 seconds after i start using it.I force quit, it reloads then crashes again.I'm sure its not a virus and just today i reinstalled the OS core files (recovery install).I don't get whats up.It crashes in safe mode and normal mode as well.
I had a problem crop up yesterday in which a folder in my documents (my documents few folder to be exact) has consistently started crashing explorer whenever I even go near the folder.If I go in to it, right click on it or even put my mouse on it explorer will crash, it has clips and pictures in it, mostly game or movie trailers, or little movie clips. If the problem cant get sorted out I would prefer the folder to be deleted.Ive asked at other places, and have seen someone else ask the same question (albeit without a resolutions) here so I'm not walking in blind.I've tried various programs including unlocker, killbox, moveonboot which all crash when attempting to delete.Spyware and virus programs crash when scanning the folder.
randomly XP crashes and I get the BSOD it restarts and reports mindump created or something. Have attached the file but I have no idea what it all means.
