Hey guys,
I know there's a lot of thread like these in here but I want to ask my specific problem.
Ok so I guess I had enough of this problem of mine, tried any possible solutions I can find
still nothing, I don't know what's causing my CPU usage to hit 100%. I already reformatted
2x times yet I end up going back on the same problem.
The weird part is even i tried to monitor the process with the task manager nothing seems
to give off at least 50 CPU usage among the programs running.
CPU readings on idle status hits up to 15 - 30%
Sometimes I experience this while simply streaming Videos on the web (Couch tuner mostly)
I use "Driver Booster" (well free version) to keep my softwares up to date.
Windows Update switched to manual mode and up to date
Using MSE (Microsoft Security Essentials) for anti-virus (even tried to switch its affinity to CPU 0)
Spybot Search & Destroy for anti malware
And Installed CCleaner and Iobit Advanced System Care for registry and error fix (also optimized for manual mode so it won't read or do things automatically)
Have the latest Java and Flash Players I could get.
Net Framework, C++ and Divx the latest I could get and even from the updates from microsoft.
I know Framework and C++ is not much of needed but it was included somehow (hard to avoid specially if some games requires it)
So I have been working with my PC for let say 8yrs now and had no problems in the past.
I can assure that the motherboard is well ventilated and cleaned.
I have nothing much installed within my PC. and I also noticed when playing some games
It lags like hell, then speed up, then lag again. (Which I haven't encountered before)
Based on reading I also changed my keyboard coz sometimes they say thats what's causing it, but np, the problem persists.
So can anyone give me an idea whats causing this crap?
