Hi,

I'm wondering just suddenly why one of the cores in this AMD Turion64 X2 is almost 100% used up while the the other core is almost unused. And yet my laptop is in idle mode.

Anyone could tell me why please? And how do I solve this?

Thank you so much...

Press Crtl-Alt-Del to bring up Task Manager, click the Processes tab, then look thru the list to see which process is hogging the CPU.

Task Manager displays System Idle Process that hoggs the cpu. What does this mean? What can I do to get this back to normal?
