My system idle process on my pc is idling at 99% cpu
usage. I can still access programs but at a very slow
rate. I have the latest norton virus data and spyware.
Both scan showed negative. Any ideas short of reformating
again?

Thanks.
 
System idle process is actually like a negative reading. If it is at 99%,
then that means your cpu is being taxed at 1%. I would boot into safe mode
with networking to see if sluggishness persists. If it does not you may need
to try disabling some of your start up programs to see what is the culprit.
I would also run SpyBot Search and Destroy on your computer to check for
parasites and you can use it in advanced mode to disable starup progrms
selectively. --- Steve
