Subject: Services.exe at 100%
Date: Fri, 30 Apr 2004 15:47:39 -0700
SERVICES.EXE is running at 100% sporadically and hogging
all system resources. Previous posts here said to remove
MS Hotfix 835732, which has been done with no improvement.
Any suggestions on what the problem might be and how to
fix it? Anti-virus and Spybot came up clean.
Thanks
Don

Troubleshooting high CPU in a host process (services.exe, svchost.exe,
etc.) is done as follows:
1) In Performance Monitor, load the Thread object and select the "%
Processor Time", for instances, select all the the threads from the problem
host process
2) When you have noted the thread(s) that you would like to examine, add
the "Start Address" counter, choose the instance(s) as needed
3) Use calc.exe to convert the displayed start address from decimal to HEX
4) Run Pstat.exe
(

.asp)
5) At the bottom of the output, you will see the start address of all the
loaded modules:
ModuleName Load Addr Code Data Paged LinkDate
