Hello,
I have Win 2000 with SP 3.
My problem is that sometimes I find the system very slow, and programs are
taking alot of time to run, even minimizing and maximizing takes a lot of
time, when I open the task manager I find that the CPU Usage in the
performance tab is 100% and it keeps on going. In the processes tab I cant
find the application that is using the CPU. I killed many tasks that are
taking alot of memory, but it didnt work too. Now I have 36 processes
running and the CPU usage is 100%. how can I solve this? is it a kind of
virus? and how to know what is the application that is using the CPU this
much?
Any help would be highly appreciated
