Dell laptop on Xp CPU usage issue

J

Jack Matthews

I have a Dell C610 Latitude that I upgraded to Windows xp sp2
I have no real issues except for one that i cannot figure out. The CPU is is
over 50 5 all the time. When I use Winternals Process explorer I see nothing
in the process tree that is over 2-3% and most are idle. The only clue is
that "system" the top process in the system tree is ~ 50% and hovers there.
I have stoped some of the procesess below it to see it it made a change and
have not seen any major reduction. Chip is intel pentium 4 @1.2ghz full
patched. Any ideas out there??? Thanks for your help.
