This is *very* strange.
Periodically, (5 minutes, then 2 hours later for 20 minutes, then
every 4 days, then for 2 hours,...) a user gets some kind of
performance problem. Keystrokes are not consistent and/or mouseclicks
are not consistent (as if system is very , very, busy) - also as if
wireless keyboard and mouse batteries are very low - swapped out
wireless with hardwire USB keyboard and hardwire USB mouse for 2 weeks
- problem continued.
CPU Utilization is Idle (of course), network utilization is low,
available memory is 300-400 megs available.
Put System on UPS, problem continued. Began to re-install system on
new Hard Drive (to keep original contents safe) - problem continued
with No user applications loaded (Dell Notebook M1210) after fresh
install.
Passes Dell Hardware diagnostics; Passes Memtestx86 memory test (55
passes).
Checked for Spyware from 4 AV engines (McAfee, Symantec, Trend Micro,
SpySweeper).
Anyone know what component might be bottle-necking here? I'm out of
ideas.
Anyone know how to check performance and load of PC bus?
