Guest J Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 I did a "repair" of Windows XP Pro and then downloaded SP3. I then noticed my CPU's at 100% every 15 to 30 seconds for about 4 seconds. I downloaded Process Explorer and found that it was occuring within svchost.exe. I then went to Services and began stopping/pausing the Services while watching the effect on the CPU usage. When I stopped Network Connections (Netman, c:windows/system32/netman.dll), it stopped the CPU usage spikes. I'm worried about what this will affect by stopping this service. I do use a wireless network when at home and file and print share. Will this be affected? Can someone recommend a better fix or explain why this was causing CPU spikes? Thank you!
