6Ghz CPU Lagging
Well i am running Windows 2003 XP SP2 with an 80gig hard drive and i have 41gig free and i have a 6ghz CPU and 1gig of RAM i have run McAfee virus scan, Microsoft Windows Mallicious Software Removal Tool and Windows Defender and they have come up with nothing but my CPU is running at 100% all the time, i dont know why but it is and the computer is lagging alot every when trying to use FireFox to open this very website. Can someone try to tell me what the hell is going on because my parents think i have done this to stop them using the computer!!!
probably, these two services are causing the problem…
wuauclt.exe wimprvse.exe
kill 'em… they ONLY check for updates,if you believe microsoft,which i don't. :p they are not needed,just on the first tuesday of the month.
i know,and a lot of people know,these 'cause your processor-time to peak@100%.
if you kill 'em…
(ctrl alt del>processes) they will,more then likely pop back up… kill 'em again&again&again…if needed…
peace.
Well if you have your computer on for long amounts of time it may be a memory leak or something like that… Try closing down your programs and start them up again…
If you don't leave your computer on hit <ctrl><alt><delete>, click processes and you should be able to see how much CPU each process is taking up… If anything looks suspicious you can Google it and see if it's bad… If it's just one of your regular programs check to see if it's up to date as there may be errors in it…

6 GHz Processor! wow please let me know where you got it. If you are talking about something like a Core Duo2 or something like that it is not 6 GHz. I would really like to see why a computer with a 6GHz Processor and 1GB RAM only has an 80 GB Hard Drive though.
Anyways back on topic. use the program HiJackThis! and post your log file here and some of us will look it over.

Hey people I found out why my computer was running at 100% and no its not a bad CPU and yes it is 6ghz or acctully it is 5.99ghz. It was fucking "Internet Explorer 7" My parents downloaded it and thought it was me!!! So i fixed the problem and yelled at them a bit for blaming me and grounding me and now it is fixed
Alright to any Windows user, i would highly recommend following Black Viper's guide. The guide has been revised but here is where i followed it http://www.dead-eye.net/WinXP%20Services.htm. I have reduced my processes(amount of prog's running, check by ctrl-alt-delete, at the bottom left corner) from 50-60 to 30-40. For the guide, as you will see there are different options to follow. I say first go with the "SAFE" option. Then check out all the different processes and disable the ones you don't think you need. Make sure you check their dependicies though, lol. If what i am saying doesn't make a lot of sense, read the guide and then come back to my post. I hope this helps :D

Well ask Dell because it is standerd from them. It is a Dell Dimension 3000. We have had the computer into a technician to check the system out and he also tells me that it is 5.99Ghz
DAMIT I JUST POSTED THIS AND HBH FRIED!
Please post proof of this by taking screen shots of your BIOS and your Windows screen showing 5.99GHz.
The fastest overclocking shown to date I have ever seen was recorded at 5.4GHz and the CPU had to be kept at -190 C (yes NEGATIVE ONE HUNDRED NINTEY DEGREES CELCIUS) on Toms Hardware.
I am guessing you have something like a Intel Duo Core2 or something and the tech you bring your computer to is a tool.
Anyways please show me proof.
