    I'm using a tabletpc windows XP unit and recently noted spikes to 100% CPU utilization due to svchost.exe occuring in task manager. Possibly related to install of new HP wireless printer; but not sure. I've noted they stop when not connected by wireless or ethernet; and also stop when I disable windows firewall (I'm behind dlink router). I ran the recommended tests and have attached logs. Any assistance appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Mike
