sr5540an 100% cpu utilisation

‎02-16-2012 06:17 AM

I have a Compaq SR5540AN desktop that has been having multiple problems.

It kept freezing, rebooting and had blue screens. It was giving Video card and memory errors.

After a while I decided to upgrade the memory to 4gb and change the O/S from Vista to W7 64bit.

My machine after the clean rebuild is running at 100% cpu utilization. After some research I suspected Malware or similar. I have purchased and run ParetoLogic PC Health Advisor and it found nothing.

I have also loaded Spybot and it ran for 24 hours and found nothing.

I'v looked at the Task manager CPU logs and nothing stands out that is chewing the CPU.

 

Has anyone else got an idea of why I am running so poorly?

 

Thanks....Paul

Hi Paul,

 

Have you tried Malwarebytes Anti-Malware? I tried Spybot and the PC health advisor with the same results as yours.

Cheers.
