Funky CPU usage

bboynation · Nov 19, 2008

Hi all,

This is my first post here, hopefully someone can help me out. I have an interesting issue with my CPU usage that i've never seen before and i can't seem to find anything on this from Google searches. Basically my CPU usage oscillates up and down in a crescendo decrescenco pattern. It's tough to explain so I attached a picture below.

Looking through my Processes, i suspect csrss.exe may have something to do with this because i see it cycling in my cpu usage. But i also have 2 explorer.exe in my processes

not sure what to do, please let me know what other information i can provide that would be helpfull

Thanks! a

Welcome to Major Geeks!

Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.

READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide

If something does not run, write down the info to explain to us later but keep on going.

Do not assume that because one step does not work that they all will not.

Notes:

If you run into problems trying to run the READ & RUN ME or any of the scans in normal boot mode. You can run steps in safe boot mode but make sure you tell us what you did later when you post logs. See the below if you do not know how to boot in safe mode:

Starting your computer in Safe mode

If you have problems downloading on the problem PC, download the tools on another PC and burn to a CD. Then copy them to the problem PC. You will have to skip getting updates if (and only if) your internet connection does not work. Yes you could use a flash drive too but flash drives are writeable and infections can spread to them.
