[GeForce 6] mpg shows 100% CPU Usage

Ever since I installed my new MSI NX6200 Graphic card, I havent been able to watch any of my mpg, mpeg, etc. files. I check the Task Manager, and it shows the player (let it be, Windows Media Player, RealOne, WinAmp, any1!) is using 100% of the CPU. What gives?
MSI NX6200 TD128
P4 1.8
60 GB Maxtor as System Drive
200 GB Seagate Drive
Creative Audigy Sound Card
Samsung SyncMaster 172x running on DVi
Windows 2000 SP4
512 RAM
(anything else needed?)
Everything is absolutely updated.
Games run fine, DVDs run fine, mp3s, name it, no problems whatsoever.
So really, what gives?
misterno

You're telling me!
I checked the Hardware Acceleration. Fine.
So... How could my video processor be faulty? I mean, can a faulty video processor really pick his "enemies"? Why only mpeg and mpg, and not anything else?
Forceware: 77.72
Video BIOS: 5.43.02.57.29
And er... Nvidia DVD Decoder? Should I install this? I don't know what that is, sorry... I don't see how a DVD decoder can change the way mpg files are perceived...
HEEEELP. Some1's gotta know! It's driving me nuts!!! (Maybe it has nothing to do with my new video card. Maybe it's something else???)

Satellite C670D-10W - Task manager shows 100% CPU usage

My brand new laptop with factory installed windows 7 and all programs by Toshiba nothing addded shows 100% processor usage in task Manager and works pretty slow. The sum of 80 odd processes shown in task manager never reaches more than 30-50 % but bottom line is always 100%.
Tried process hacker 2, shows same processes as task manager.
What can be the problem?

If you check this forum you will see that you can find many threads with the same or similar content. Many people have noticed the same after notebook purchase, especially phenomena that notebook is pretty slow. Just without panic. What you must do is to optimize preinstalled operating system.
What can be the problem?
Brand new notebook is preinstalled with original Toshiba recovery image. This recovery image contains operating system, all necessary drivers, different Toshiba specific tools and utilities and some additional software like preinstalled McAffe or Norton antivir.
Many of these tools, utilities and additional software will start with operating system and run in the background. To be honest some of them can be deactivated, some of them can be also removed from the system. By default Windows update is set to automatic so when you go online all available windows updates will be installed automatically in the background and this will happen without your knowledge. This updates installation will make your HDD pretty busy and notebook operations will be slowed down.
I recommend you to change this option and set it to Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install.....
I hope you understand what I want to say and if you have more questions you are welcome.

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.

In Oracle 10g,nmupm.exe runs at 100% CPU usages

Hi There this is Bal Mukund Sharma from Computer Associates,HYD.I have recently installed Oracle 10g on windows 2000 server with 1 GB RAM,i have observed that nmpsupm.exe which is under the bin directory under c:\oracle\product\10.1.0\Db_1\nmupm.exe.is consuming all CPU resources.
when i set all Oracle services to manual and restarted the machine then it shows normal CPU usages. Can you please suggest something regarding this.
Regards
Mukund.

This is a known issue, see here

Copying from USB NTFS device with Dolphin (KDE) causes 100% CPU usage

I am copying +/- 30 GB of Music files (flac) from my external USB HDD which is formatted as NTFS.
I have installed ntfs-3g and am experiencing near 100% CPU usage. What's wrong?
Additional info: I am using KDE and initiated the copying through dolphin. KDE's system monitor only shows CPU usage near 100%, but no processes in the process view could be responsable.
Thanks!

What mount options are used for that ntfs drive?
Edit: There are many similar threads but I couldn't find a solution other than trying out some kernel and cpufrequtils fun.

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.

K7N420 100% cpu usage

Apologies in advance for a long post but I'm stretched beyond my technical abilities to solve this thing. I was running a virus scan a week ago (no issues, it had just been a long time since I ran one) and while I was away the machine restarted itself when it shouldn't have. It was waiting at the redhat login (dual boot XP and redhat) when it should have been waiting to tell me the scan was done in XP. It never booted properly again. The HD reported fatal unrecoverable errors. I bit the bullet and replaced the drive with a Maxtor 80G 7200rpm drive and loaded XP Pro with no issues. Loaded Norton, updated it twice and proceeded for Windows updates. No issues, device manager has no conflicts. HOWEVER, the machine is running no apps (they aren't even installed!) and taskmanager reports 100% cpu usage and no processes running except system idle which jumps from 97 to 99% repeatedly. Somehow I managed to revive the original drive (wrote zeroes to it and ran scandisk several times and it reports no errors now) and tried it with the same problem. I've gone so far as to install 98se (yuck) on the original WD drive and it is using about 28% cpu, again with virtually nothing installed. I ran stinger off a floppy as well as Norton several times so the drives and MBR would appear to be clean. The RAM is appearing properly on both OS's and always no applications running and no processes showing as using anything. I'm stumped.
Any advice is welcome.

GlennVidia, first thanks for helping this dumbass out. I ran the memtest overnight with no issues. I just reinstalled XP on the new Maxtor drive. I am using the 2.03 drivers. I just installed PCAlert and it shows the following voltages: Vcore: 1.74, 3.3 is at 3.34, 5 is at 5.03 and 12 is at 12.18 with a cpu temp of 118F. I have installed no other apps including anti-virus. The cpu usage is bouncing between 44% and 65% cycling every second...you can set a clock to it. (Hopefully that triggers someone's memory?) No processes showing as using resources in task manager besides system idle and an occasional hit for task manager itself. Device manager has no issues. I changed the ide cable and reseated all cables to and from the mobo.
You mention usb...I'm not using any usb devices but will gladly kill it in DM if that is what you are suggesting for a test run.

Crystalras.exe consuming 100% CPU usage

Hi everyone,
When we try to open an instance of one of our Crystal reports from InfoView, the crystalras.exe process runs at 100% CPU usage and the report never shows up. After a few minutes, we get the following message:
The request timed out because there has been no reply from the server for 600,000 milliseconds.
Does anyone know where the problem could come from? Could this be because the report is retrieving too much data?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Dear Both,
I traced the RAS server as suggested by Tim and obtained a log that - I have to admit - is quite difficult for me to understand. Could I send it to one of you for examination? Thanks in advance.
Ted, please find below my answers to your questions:
Just to close out possible data source issues, are the reports going against Business Views or Universes?
The report is based on Business Views.
Do you have Processing Extensions specified for the reports?
Sorry but what are Processing Extensions?
Also, when you checked in the Crystal Reports Designer, was it Designer installed on the same machine where the page server and RAS server is running?
Yes, it is installed on the same machine.
Also, since it affects both Page Server and RAS, it may require CRPE traces to get to the bottom of this (CRPE - 'creepy' - is the CR engine used by both the Page and RAS server).
I will certainly open a case with SAP to have them help me on that.
Thank you both for your help. It is very appreciated.

Mountain Lion 10.8.3: Dock shows 100%+ CPU in Activity Monitor

I upgraded my 'early 2008' MBP from 10.8.2 to 10.8.3 last week. Memory use seems to have increased with no real change in application usage — .CPU utilization seems similar, too. I have been watching Activity Monitor + vm_stat to see if I could identify any issues. I just noticed that the Dock process shows 100% CPU utilization in the detail section — even though the Activity Monitor summary stats show plenty of idle CPU cycles available. Swap activity is minimal — this all makes me question the validity and/or accuracy of the detailed stats shown in Activity Monitor. Any input or comment from the community?
TIA...
P.S. Activity Monitor screen shots are below. And no, I'm not running Parallels as per prior discussion https://discussions.apple.com/message/15596756#15596756 from 2011.

My $HOME/Library/Preferences folder contained only two com.apple.dock.* files:
com.apple.doc.plist w/current date timestamp
com.apple.doc.plist.KBPCAn with two-month old date timestamp
Detailed examination of the com.apple.doc.plist parameters seemed to be correct with nothing abnormal.
The killall Dock command suggested by Kappy seemed to address the 100%+ CPU at first, but then it returned.
Three consecutive full system shutdown/restart cycles seems to have eliminated Activity Monitor showing the Dock process running @ 100%+ CPU after 24+ hours of operation. No changes were made to the content of com.apple.dock.plist. My best guess at this point is that my system's Dock process may have had a memory leak-type issue that is neither traceable or reproduceable at this point.
The Activity Monitor issue variance (Dock process detail @ 100%+ CPU despite the summary record showing idle CPU cycles available) isn't explained. It seems to me that the sum of the detailed Activity Monitor records should match the summary pie chart information presented.
Thanks to Kappy for the input and suggestion. Further comment/discussion WRT the Activity Monitor issue is most welcome...

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.

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!
