I have run through the virus forum here and have discovered that this problem is not due to maleware or anything of that kind so I was directed here.

Problem: When Service Plug and Play is selected in MSCONFIG my CPU usage jumps up to 100% to 80% due to Services.exe

I am running Windows XP Pro SP3

Just can't deal with not being able to plug anything into my PC anymore!

Please Help

If this helps I ran Process Explorer and this is what I found

I opened properties and found these threads using up usage:

The first one had multiple or duplacites and the second was only one.

Kernel32.dll!CreateThread+0x22
and
umpnpmgr.dll!PNP_HwProfFlags+0x2b9

Running Windows XP Pro, Service pack 3.

Avria is my antivirus program, but as previously stated I have gone thorugh the antivirus side of the forum and my computer is clean.

here is the link if you would like more info about possibly virus/maleware: http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f100/plug-and-play-causes-services-to-run-100-a-543822.html

Bumping again.... Please help

Your computer specs will still help. If it's a store bought just brand and model is ok. If a custom build we need the motherboard, RAM, CPU, and Power Supple brand/mode/wattage.
