I have a problem getting WXP to run on my Dell Dimension XPS T500 (500 MHz PIII). After a complete fresh install of XP, the 'System' process (NOT 'System idle') is using 100% of the CPU. I have tried all available updates. I have removed all unessesary hardware (soundcard etc.). I have tried booting into safe mode and killing all services. Nothing seems to help.
With the <A HREF="http://www.iarsn.com/taskinfo.html" target="_new">Taskinfo</A> program, I have been able to determine that the CPU is loaded due to exessive thread switches. I have more than 7000 thread switches pr. second! With the Taskinfo program I can see that the thread with ID 00034 and 00060 are the ones using the CPU.
Is there anyway I can determine more exactly what these threads are doing and why?
