>(859) 635-5762OK, so I disabled all McAfee-related processes, and anything
else that looked expendable. No effect. None. CPU load
still hovering at 50+%. The task manager screen shows nothing
happening; just System Idle. at 93-99. Yet somehow, the CPU
load remains at 50+.
Any other ideas? Thanks, Chris

Go to http:\\housecall.antivirus.com and scan the whole computer. Sounds
like a hidden process to me.
Also, go to www.micorosoft.com and get their sony rootkit tool if you think
there's even a "slight" chance you put a Sony audio CD in your drive that
has this malware built in

>Hi and thanks again for all the suggestions-
I have eliminated all spyware found, but no change in CPU load.
This thing is a bit faster now, though, so that's cool.
I can't figure out how to dump that Sony worm; I couldn't find
it specifically on the Microsoft website, and the download that
did claim the ability to find it, didn't.
CPU load still hovering at 50%. If this is useful info at all,
I can still hear the CPU "working", even when it should be idle.
Something is going on in there, but what?
I have 2 EDS cards, and two of the 512MB RAM sticks. I have had
an nVidia video card since building this thing about 2 1/2
years ago.
The CPU load has been like this ever since I first discovered it about six
months ago, but could very well have been doing it
all along. I didn't think anything of it, until a recent and
taxing mix job maxed everything out in PARIS, and I was getting digital clicks
and pops, and error messages.
Is there anything I can do to ID the issue at this point? Or do
I take it one at a time- replace video card, mess with RAM,
etc.?
Peace, Chris

>(859) 635-5762Personally... I would wipe the drive and start over. That would
eliminate the Sony thing at the same time.
