High CPU usage at certain times
Posted by Scuba on October 10th, 2005


I have a problem that when I run games on miniclip.com or an msn game with a
friend at times my CPU usage shoots up to 80-90% and my game gets really
slow, slow motion, it's normal for the other people playing the game. At
first I thought it was macromedia flash, but it has also done it with
shockwave, maybe even java games. The flash game gets really slow and other
flash graphics that may be open, like in an IE window or at the top of my AIM
messanger window also get slow and their % of CPU usages goes up too. I
can't find any help anywhere.
Comp: 3.0GHZ Dell laptop, Nvidia graphics card, 768MB RAM
Thanks
