Event Error 257 - HELP!

I've getting a log full of error 257 (PlugPlayManager).

<<<

Timed out sending notification of target device change to window of
"WndClass_CWinDrivesNotifyerHelperWindow"

For more information, see Help and Support Center at

This is really affecting performance. CPU usage is at around 90% almost all
the time, and Kernel usage is around 18% all the time.

I've looked and looked and cant' find anything relating to this.

The only "New" thing on my system in last month is (was - I NUKED it) Ulead
DVD Workshop 2. System is absolutely and free of viruses, trojans, worms,
bots and other malware.

Can someone help please.

It was caused by an update to Nero 8. Indexing service!!! Don't install
Scout, Backup or Rescue Disk unless you really need them.
Related service: NMindexingService.
