Guest SPD Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Windows 2000 Server SP4 3.05 GHz Xeon processors (2) Intel SE7501HG2 Board 4 GBs Memory System Idle Process starts at 99% and over a weeks time it declines. As of this writing and five days later, its at 40% with a CPU time of 399:26:42 and mem usage of 16K. All other processes appear to be running minimal percentage of the CPU or none at all. Eventually I will need to reboot bacause my clients begin experiencing poor performance. Any suggestions

Guest SPD Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Re: System Idle Process Other then checking the Task Manager is there a way I can do that. No other process appears to be using the remaining CPU time. I checked all my processes to make sure the are legit and I have not installed any new software or hardware.

Guest Pegasus \(MVP\) Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Re: System Idle Process I don't know of an alternative process that shows me the various processor loadings. When I click the "CPU" column header twice in the Task Manager then the I can see a list of processes sorted by CPU loading, with the most CPU-intensive processes right up the top. When I add up the first few processes then their sum is always 100%. You must, of course, tick the box at the bottom that makes ALL processes visible.

Guest SPD Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Re: System Idle Process Here's an added twist. I neglected to check the box for all processes. When checked, the System Idle jumps back up to 99%. As soon as I uncheck the box, it goes back to 40%.
