When i bring up my task manager I see that svchost.exe has a really high CPU usage,This just started a few days ago and im not sure whats wrong. I have tried disableing automatic updates and also I remember having the same problem with an older computer of mine but I believed I fixed it with installing an update called Update for Windows XP (KB927891) Can be found here http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=7A81B0CD-A0B9-497E-8A89-404327772E5A&displaylang=en I have tried installing it but it tells me a newer package system is already on it and that there is no reason for this update. Does anyone know how to fix this?3 people need an answerI do too

Try using Process Explorer to see what's calling svchost http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx -- Noel Paton CrashFixPC Nil Carborundum Illegitemi www.crashfixpc.co.uk
