I need help guys I just built a new system for a friend and am experiencing wierd CPU spikes.
Every 20-60 seconds the CPU will spike out of no where up to around 45%.
This causes any program running to Pause/skip(DVD player or playing MP3) and the mouse also pauses 1-2 seconds.
Everything in the background is shut off.
Heres my specs.
WinXP with all the latest drivers
Athlon 2200+ Running at about 48 celsius
350W PS ( Ive also tried my 450 enermax)
MSI Kt3 Ultra ARU
512MB PC2700 Kingston
16X Lite-oon DVD
40x10x48X Lite-on CDRW.
2 40GB WD HDD on the raid Partitioned into 3 25GB drives.
Using the Onboard sound
Dlink 10/100 card
USR 56K PCI modem
Gainward GF4 4200.
Please HELP!
Thanks!
