Well... I am at a loss and willing to try what ever to remedy the situation.
I'm running an older rig that was meant for XP, has the specs for W7, but I never decided to make the leap with it because it was always dragged down. But now I have another system that works just fine with 7 and I'm looking to find out what the problem is with this one...
The system I'm having problems with is a HP Media Center PC m7470n.
Seems that the CPU usage is constantly around the 50% mark with windows 7 (runs flawless with xp).
I'm assuming there is a hardware/driver issue, but alas I cannot find it!!
So I'm giving my pride up and asking for some tech help.... any takers?
(A virus is out of the question, it is a clean install)
Included is a screen shot of the running processes and resource mon.

Any suggestions...? I'm open for ideas here.
