Hi,
I know this newsgroup is for XP, but perhaps there is someone who can help
me out on my Win 2000 system.
a few days ago, my WIN 2000 (Dutch) machine started switching on and off
from 0% to 85% on the SYSTEM process. At 85% processing power for SYSTEM,
my PC is terribly slow. ANY idea what this might mean and how to solve this
?
Thanks,
Arnold
 
Arnold,

It may be that some background process is affecting the
CPU usage. In order to resolve this issue, I would
suggest you to uninstall any new software that you have
installed and also update the Anti-Virus and scan for a
virus.

Also, please run the msconfig utility and uncheck some
programs in the startup.
