Windows98 100% cpu usage, any fix?

Hi,
Any fix available for the 100% cpu usage problem in Windows 98, or do we have to wait untill 8.1.7 for Win98 and hope that it works in that version?
regards,

This issue can be caused by confliction from one of the background programs. You may troubleshoot in Clean Boot Mode.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
However if the issue persists in Clean Boot Mode, I suggest you click the Start Button, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, and then click Internet Explorer (No Add-ons). If the issue does not reoccur, it may be caused by an IE Add-on. In that
case, let’s continue to perform the following steps to narrow down the cause.
Check Internet Explorer Add-Ons
=========================
1. Click Tools, and then click Internet Options.
2. Click the "Programs" tab, and then click Manage Add-ons.
3. Select an add-on in the Name list, and then click Disable.
4. Restart IE with Add-ons and check the issue again.
If the issue is resolved, the disabled Add-on was the cause of the issue. If the issue reoccurs, continue to disable the next Add-on using the same method.
By doing so, we could determine which Add-on contributed to the issue.
If it does not help, please reset IE and see if it works.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in compatibility mode.<br />
You can open the Properties via the right-click context menu of the Firefox desktop shortcut and check that in the "Compatibility" tab.<br />
Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.<br />

Recently FireFox often has been causing 100% CPU usage and locks up until it finishes the process (various ones). Clearing cookies/cache didn't help. Any ideas?

Windows 2000 SP4, 1g RAM, Firefox 9.0.1
We keep IE6 and Firefox open simultaneously for 2 different mail accounts. Firefox was always much faster even with 3 or 4 tabs open, but for the past couple of weeks when trying to update a screen the CPU suddenly goes to 100% usage and of course nothing will move until the particular process is finished. Closing one or more tabs does not help. If I close Firefox completely with Task Manager CPU usage goes back down to nil. After restarting Firefox CPU usage may or may not go back up depending upon whether it tries to continue the previous task that was locking it up.
It did not do this with Firefox 3.6 but then again it didn't happen immediately after updating to 9.0.1 either.

100% CPU usage occurred most often toward the end of the working day when busy trying to print on-line postage. We don't have any memory-consuming plugins but according to the knowledge base articles Firefox memory usage can gradually increase during the day even if you do nothing. It seems that may be the problem so we close and restart Firefox more often now as that usually fixes the problem. However, if we get stuck on a particular website update that causes the CPU to to go 100%, we can always start Firefox without previous tabs so the update will stop, or simply use a different browser until we have time to let the computer play games with itself.
So our workaround of restarting Firefox turns out to be the final solution (until we find something better - will post it if we do). Vic

My laptop (win7 2ghz, 1gig) has 100% cpu usage with itunes installed (even when not running itunes) since the upgrade. i had to uninstall. tried installing but still the same problem. my daughter wants the new ipad, but this is a serious problem.

when itunes upgraded my laptop went to 100% cpu usage. only solution was uninstall. have tried itunes again as my daughter wants the new ipad. still same problem tho so not keen to spend £400 on new pad without pc support. anyone help? (ps been using ipod touches 1 and 2, been great source of pleasure for my two girls, but cant sync them, so using the little shuffles for music, syncing to an old version of itunes on an old netbook - had the sense to switch off upgrades when the new version went wrong)

Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

Shockwave Flash 11.6.602.168 100% CPU usage

Hi,
Our computer has 100% CPU usage every time we get in websites that utilize Flash, or watch youtube.
Browser: FF 19.0
Flash 11.6.602.168
Computer: HP Pentium 4, 2.8 GHz, 3G memory, up-to-date BIOS and other drivers.
Graphic card: EVGA GeFprce 6200
Windows 7 32 bits
This window is freshly installed, has AVG on. We do not have many software's installed, except MS Office. All fans and CPU are clean. The computer runs fairly fast: we tried opening multiple FF tabs simultaneously, plus Excel, Word, Solitaire etc. without any problems. However, whenever we get into websites with Flash, the CPU uasage goes to 100% and stays there. Memory usage has always been stable, around 30%. We have tried the following steps, but it hasn't gotten better:
- Turned off all applications, opened only one tab with that website.
- Updated all drivers and applications: FF, Flash, Graphic card etc.
- Turned ON and OFF hardware acceleration for both Flash and FF, also tried to turn one On, the other OFF, and vise versa.
- Disabled all add-on's, extensions and Plug-in's, except Flash.
- Uninstalled and reinstall FF and Flash; restarted several times.
- Temporarily turned OFF protected mode.
- Uninstalled FF, Flash, then installed IE 9, then Flash for IE: didn't work.
- Uninstalled IE 9, Flash, then installed IE10 then reinstalled Flash for IE: also didn't work.
- We do not keep browsing history.
Examples of websites that we have had problems with: pbskids.org, barbie.com, and other school websites for kids to do homework or watch youtube.
While in many websites such as CNN.com, yahoo.com, when we opened it, the CPU usage did spike, but came back to 1-5% within 5 seconds.
This computer is for our kids. Do we really need to buy an i5 or i7 computer so the kids can play and do homework? Or is there any other way that we can do?
Thank you

Moving to the Using Flash Player forum, as this isn't specific to the Beta.
In the Youtube video, if you right-click and choose Show Video Info, it will show you whether you're using Hardware Acceleration for both Video Rendering and Video Decoding.
If you're seeing Software Rendering and/or Software Decoding and you're watching a high-def video, it's going to use a ton of CPU.
Do you see similar behavior in other browsers? (Chrome, IE) The Flash Player distributions are actually quite different for each browser. It would be an interesting data point.

Queue consumer stops with 100% cpu usage

I'm trying to use Berkeley DB queue with transactions. When I tested what happens when transactions with DB_APPEND are aborted I found that while it works and DB_CONSUME correctly skips over rolled back records, unfortunately extents that have those records are never deleted, which causes database to always grow. Next I tried DB_CONSUME with database opened using DB_INORDER flag and it seems there's a serious regression in Berkeley DB that causes it to loop indefinitely with 100% cpu usage when it encounters a rolled back record. I tested various versions and found that this bug doesn't happen with 5.1.29, but it is reproducible with 5.2.42, so this regression might have been introduced in 5.2. I have also tested 5.3 and 6.0, and both have this behavior. There may be something wrong with the way queue records are rolled back, one indication of that would be that in 5.1.29 doesn't have neither of the two problems I found with DB_QUEUE: extents are deleted after being consumed, and there are no issues when consuming with DB_INORDER either.
You can find Python code to reproduce this issue here:
https://gist.github.com/snaury/027a3c546f5b0a62a440
Sorry for using Python and not e.g. C++, but it's a lot shorter that way.

We have looked at the issues and they are valid. We will roll the fixes out for this in our next release of BDB. The test case was very useful and really helped to speed the process up. If you have any questions, please contact me directly at [email protected] Thanks again for bringing this to our attention.
thanks

HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fn - DNS issue, hundreds of UDP connections affects my router 100% CPU usage

Hi all,
We've bought about ten pieces (HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fn), tested only one the other 9 are waiting for their time to be sent in our branch offices. The MFP works fine, no complains till later that day I noticed that our Mikrotik Router was struguling with high CPU usage, it took me some time to find the issue and it was the new bought MFP. Don't know why but it creates hundreds of UDP connections and almost 100% CPU usage goes to DNS service. As soon as I shutdown the MFP and delete all the connections everything goes back to normal. I've disabled almost all services (HP web service, Ipv6, SNMP, AirPrint, SLP, LPD, WS-Discovery, Bonjour), leaving only Ipv4 but without luck the issue persists. Here are some print screens confirming my saying:

Problem:100 % cpu usage with tcp server dll

Hello,
I am trying to write a dll with labwindows/cvi that allows me to create a TCP Server. This dll is integrated in labview.I created this Dll with example provides by Labwindows/cvi(rtserver.dll).
Description of my problem: when i execute this dll in a "While Loop" in labview,the TCp server wait a connection and 100% cpu usage occurs. However when a client is connect to the server,the CPU is normaly used because the program stop when he meets the timeout of the tcpread() function. I would like to know how i could limit CPU usage when the server is awaiting a client in the labview "While loop".
I know I could use a DELAY() to limit Cpu usage ,but I would like to know if there are any others solutions.
thank you.

i dont know your exact application, but i generally use Q to transfer data to TCP loop in my prgram it helps me in two ways.
1. it automatically restricts the iteration when ther is no data (Less CPU Usage, Less Unnecessary Trafic)
2. Q can eliminate problems arising due to non synchronization of loop

100% CPU usage with XP Cooler from PCAlert4

Any idea why I would be running 100% cpu usage when running XP Cooler from PCAlert4? I noticed PC was sluggish when running it so CTRL+ALT+DEL and under performance is 100% CPU with 245MB Ram Usage. No other TSR's running - several application but under 10% CPU usage without PCAlert and XP Cooler.
I was also wondering if anyone had any ideas on the video? I have the K7N2G with 768MB DDR PC 2100 (3x256) XP2200+ 266FSB running 1804MHz - Maxtor 30GB 7200RPM - 350W PSU (raidmax - yea yea I know, dont say a word though LOL) on board video and here is the problem - graphics are great, but they get choppy - running NFS HotPursuit 2 at 32bit 800x600 (doesnt seem to matter even when running 16bit 640x480still does it.) what setting am I missing? Thanks in advance.

Deathstalker (Richard),
I did what you suggest in memory management and also changed out the mem on the board - it did make a difference, not as much as I had hoped, but it did.
Raven,
I have used Fraps in the past, forgot about it, but went ahead and downloaded it to get a better look.
To the Both of you,
Thanks so much for your replies, sometimes it just takes someone outside looking in to see the things overlooked. But I went ahead and also ran all of the latest updates for the board (semi new system and I only installed with the CD that came with the Mobo) and everything is running better than expected. Thanks again for your thoughts - keep 'em flowin, it's amazing whom we could help. Take care.

Distiller 8 and 9 both locking up, 100 % CPU usage

Not sure if its related, but probably, since it happened right after...I just transferred everything from my quad core mac pro to my new 8-core Mac Pro. Everything went well, but now Distiller 8 starts and then sits and gives the beachball of death, and one of the cores shows 100% cpu usage. (I have that utility that shows memory used, CPU usage, etc.). I hadn't bought Acrobat 9 yet so I downloaded it and installed, and Distiller 9 does the EXACT same thing. The ONLY thing I can call an "error message" is that I can see in the window after it launches is "Error in /Library/Application Support/Adobe PDF/Settings/PDFX4 2007.joboptions:/CheckCompliance out of Range."
That message may have been there whole time, even when it worked, though. I don't know. At any rate, I need distiller working! Any ideas?

Glad to hear all is well. Preference files can cause big problems. Eons
ago, in the 1980s, I used a communications program called Red Ryder. I
loved the program. After it was updated to a new version (it might have
been called White Knight by that time), I started to have terrible
problems. I wrote to their technical support. They couldn't duplicate
the problem. It couldn't happen etc. I eventually got a little hot under
the collar. After all, if I couldn't use my modem, I couldn't check my
email, etc. It turned out to be a problem with my preference file when
converted to the latest version, that was causing the problem. Since
they always started with a new preference file, they couldn't duplicate
the problem that was obvious to me.

Music store & 100% CPU usage

I've had this problem on my newly built computer, and my older machine. When I browse the iTunes music store, the status bar on the top will often move like it's opening the music store, but it'll do this for a long period of time (several minutes) and iTunes will work, but the music store will not load, and you cannot click the 'X' to stop the contacting of the music store. During this time if you open task manager, iTunes uses 100% of CPU resources. If you close iTunes it still uses 100%. you have to end the process in task manager in order to make it stop. On occasion the music store will work to view maybe one album, but if you search for another album, or click another link it'll do the whole not-responding-100% CPU usage cycle again.
All drivers are up to date and like I said it's done this on two seperate computers of mine on the same iTunes account. I also have a laptop and the music store works completely fine on it. It's only on my desktops that I have this issue.
Some specs on my machine if this will help
Asus motherboard
AMD Athlon XP 4000+ processor
2gb Kingston 184 pin DDR ram
Seagate SATA II 160 GB HD
Windows XP PRO service pack 2
thanks for your help!

I'm only guessing here, but perhaps iTunes is having a conflict with another application. If you are anything like me you probably install your favourite applications on all your computers. As a shortcut to troubleshooting, perhaps consider an application you have installed on the desktops, but NOT on the laptop. Then try uninstalling that application from your desktop computer and test iTunes.

100% CPU usage by iCal

For some reason my iCal application uses 100% of CPU. What can I do to avoid it?

I had a similar problem with iTunes.
Here's the link to what fixed my problem immediately. Please note: my problem was resolved following just the three steps pasted below. The original link has additional steps that may be necessary, although I did not employ them, and my problem of 100% CPU USAGE is gone!!! Thank God!
