I'm installed(clean) XP and everything works great but whenever i go 2 Task manager and check the performance, my CPU usage always stays at 10%, even when my computer does nothing and just sits here, cuase of that whenver i play any games like Quake 3 theres a slight pause whenver moving. Now i know it cuase of the CPU usage cuase it wouldn't do that on my friends computer. I also got rid of any unecessary start items and have plent of free space and ram. How would fix this problom so that my CPU usage ain't always at 10%? I have a Tyan Motherboard with a P3 800Mhz, 512 MB of ram, ELSA GeForce 3, 30gig HD & a 7gig HD(backup) Thanx in advance
