On my Windows XP system, every few seconds CPU activity shoots
to 100%, even with no applications running, and stays there for
a second or so.
Task Manager's "Processes" tab identifies the hog as "System".
According to Sysinternals Process Explorer, there is only one
direct subtask to System, and it (smss.exe) and its subtasks
are only responsible for 2% of the activity.
Ideas on how to further identify what's going on?
