Hi,
I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit with an Intel Core2 CPU (6600 @ 2.4GHz (2 CPUs)), but have run into a problem. While attempting to diagnose a different problem, I stumbled across a histogram of CPU usage, of which mine has a slightly concerning pattern.
Right now my CPU usage is hovering around 2-5%, but every 10 seconds, my CPU usage spikes to about 25-30%. I have yet to check if this happens in safe mode, but it seems that both of my CPUs are doing this.
I've watched the usage, and it seems that Explorer.exe is causing the spikes, though I have no idea why.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
