Re: 100% CPU usage but no processes
Moved on a bit. The sysinternals process explorer identified it as a svchost.exe process but it appeared to be running normal microsoft services CryptSvc, Dnccache,NlaSvc and TermService.
However there are several services listed with strange names for example FQWO and the executables all in the temp files. So from Safe Mode I disabled these. However if I restart in normal mode with services enable (using Windows Configuration Utility) shortly after I start the same svchost.exe goes to near 100%, if I disable all services I'm stuck because....
I want to update the virus checker but it requires a windows patch which refuses to install in safe mode even having downloaded it!!!! As soon as I startup with any services enabled the thing runs at 100% and effectively stops me doing anything. To add to the misery Vista stops ME doing anything like dropping priority on the svchost.exe to let me do anything else!!!!
Anybody any thoughts??
