Crazy CPU usage and slow system startup
Hello everyone:
System spec: Hp compaq nx6325
Amd sempron 3400+ (1800mhz)
memory 512mb(448mb system and 64mb video)
60gb hd
ive posted in another forum to no success. There is a reward of my eternal love for anyone who can help me out.
PROBLEM( it has been this way for abotu 2 weeks now): From turning on the laptop to getting to the desktop and being able to open apps takes about 20 minutes. When i get there any audio/video application (itunes, WMP etc) causes the CPU to sky rocket to 100%. it then comes down after about 10 seconds but continues to hover around the 40-65% Range. The Audio playback is terrible, jumpy , laggy, broken etc etc. Also the mouse pointer freezes every 5 seconds for about a second.
I have run spybot, adaware, norton(which i have now removed) none of them found anything. I Have downloaded and run CCleaner and lots of other programmes recommended to me on this website with no luck.
ANY IDEAS ANYONE!!! Im pretty desperate to sort this out. I really dont want to have to resort to re-installing windows cos i have nearly 20gb of music and "bothered" to back it up.
:mad
