Good morning all,
I've run into a problem with my Windows XP OS (5.1 B2600)
that I don't understand (not a PC guru).
I have a couple of processes that continually max out my
CPU(avserve.exe & svchost.exe). I am not an xp guru.
What do these processes do? As a temp solution I
disabled avserve.exe using msconfig and my system seems
to be running fine, but like I said this is only
temporary until I fix the real problem. I noticed that
right before my system started honking up I got a message
about my swap file not being big enough. It was 2x my
ram but I boosted it again anyway, just in case. I've
got no other errors (disk access, paging or otherwise).
Also, my Virus scanner is Norton and I have installed the
latest dat files. No viruses found, but this problem
does seem to have an effect on Norton (it won't scan
emails if avserve.exe is running).
Any thoughts / suggestions would be most appreciated.
