Not sure if this is the right forum to post so sorry if it isn't.
First off .... I have
Windows Xp Home
Asus p4s333
2 gig p4
256 kingmax 2700
nvidia g4 4200
ect...
Its not A GTA3 problem but ...I first noticed the problem while running GTA3. (yes i have all patches and updated drivers)Every couple of seconds I would get a second or two of slowdown. So I decided to check the task manager to see what (if anything) was running in the backround.I noticed that the cpu usage was spiking every few seconds up to about 35% usage. I can see that "System" in the processes tab is what is running. If I "end process" I get 0% usage; but if I do that other things on my system stops working.
Obviously "System" is controlling a couple of things on my system but WHAT ? Is there anyway I can find out in more detail what each process controls?
I've been trying to fix this for weeks but no good . Things that I tried are...
switching from xp pro to xp home
running all microsoft updates
been to blackviper.com and shut down everything I could
running "adaware" to see if anything is running
if anyone else has seen this problem PLEASE HELP ! TIA !!!
