    hello all. i am new here becouse i have a problem i cannot find a fix for. my system kernal is at a constant 25% usage. and is causing my system to over work. i have run spybot search and distroy and come up clean. i have run advanced system care 6 to the same effect i also have avast antivirus and it has turned up nothing. i have used proccess explorer and it is only listing two objects smss.exe and interupts. now i do have a question about smss when i hit the properties setting it says it cant find it. i dont think that is normal but when i look for where it should be it is there. the other thing is that i have run into this before and the only way i could find to get rid of it was a reformat. that was only a couple days ago and now it is back. i realy need your help i dont know what to do.

    This really does sound like topic for the software forum rather than here, however, if you wish to rule out malware before you go off seeking help in the software forum, feel free to run these instructions and I will review your logs. :)
