So how does that tally with your thread title?!?!I have checked proccesses and everything seems to be running normal!
How exactly have you "checked processes"? Have you tried Process Explorer? What is the specification of your machine in terms of CPU type/speed, installed RAM, hard disk space (total and available) etc.? Did Vista ever run smoothly? If it did then what changed since?CPU and RAM running very high after Vista updates
What "thingy"?! What "RAM" - physical, virtual, other?this little CPU and RAM device thingy I have installed is telling me that CPU is flickering from 10% to 100% and RAM is running at 50%
Yes it did and the update was: Windows Update Agent 7.2.6001.784Did Vista ever run smoothly? If it did then what changed since?
The thingy in question is on my sidebar from [broken link removed]What "thingy"?! What "RAM" - physical, virtual, other
Be careful doing this. You can't just arbitrarily kill processes like this and expect your machine to keep running reliably (at least until a reboot).I m running vista over a year and frequently have to hit Control+alt+delete and run taskmanager to find what processes is either hogging memory or cpu or disk (use resource manager) and sometimes to 'end process'.
One can 'Google' to see the function of the rogue process( ***.exe )and it is usaully associated with some programme.
I notice that the anti virus programmes can be paticularly troublesome from time to time and seem to trash the disk e.g. AVG can get upset if it fails to get thru to server. I had to re-instal on one occasion after an update. Had even worst problems with McFee, . Firefox use to hog memory at one time but this seems to be fixed.
It can be an idea to take a snapshot (use printscreen key & paste into Word) of your processes when everything is running well and use to compare when things are unwell, so rogue processes can be identified . Every process should be capable of been accounted for.
I have seen cases where the processes cant be ended as they automatically restart but at least this method has worked for me as it always pointed me in the right direction and I was always aware as to where the trouble lay.
Fingers crossed!!! Thank you and I'll let you know the outcomeIts got nothing to do with power.
I'm betting Vista indexing
By unplugging it you simply interupt the schedule of whatever is running, which simply starts up again on schedule.
