sometimes my cpu usage jumps to like 40% randomly any ideas why and what i should do about it? (dont have any apparent viruses, i cleanup kimat every night)
CPU usage of which process?
if you mean in the left hand corner it says the total process then its 66 ( i doubt you mean that but just in cases) and in general i dont notice which process specifically jumps up just the total cpu usage
Does it spike for a second or go up and stay up?If it stays up you can see which process it is in the Processes tab of 'Task Manager'.
no it usually doesnt spike for a super long time and i know the numbers are up because i look at the process tab in task manager. I usuallly notice my internet is a little alower then normal then i check and i see its high. Do u know of any one specific process that could be killing the cpu usage when opened? Can i cut and copy my list and pm it to you? please
ok i changed my mind i wont because i am not sure how to copy and paste the whole list its not letting me highlight the whole thing
Do you have any programs set to automatically update?Or maybe anti-virus programs running scheduled scans?
If you click on the arrow in the processes tab it can sort them from highest to lowest.
