Richard it was just System - 50% (sys idle also 50% naturally). I then
proceeded to turn off the PC and it took forever and a day..OK about half an
hour ;-). Now it's OK. Just wondering what was going on there.

P.S. I read somewhere that when a PC comes out of Hibernation the BIOS is
involved...??
