Can Anyone Tell Me How to Fix This?
Operating a 2.4ghz PC with 1 giga of RAM under Windows XPSP2.
Got a rogue program/expanding do-loop/something loose that's driving me crazy!
When I boot up, all runs O.K. Then something starts keeping the CPU busy, doing something unknown. After a few hours the CPU is constantly busy, other programs I am using slow to a crawl. Reboot and the cycle repeats.
Where can I find software to tell me what is going on, which program(s) are actually running and using CPU time?
Or how else can I fix this?...other than designating a new HD as the C: drive, then re-installing all the stuff I want, running the old C: drive as a data drive until I am ready to re-format it, clean it and leave whatever was causing the problem (hopefully) behind?
Any suggestions would be appreciated...
Thanks!
