I have installed vista 64 bit and upon first startup and before installing
anything I found that my cpu usage was between 90 and 100%. I tracked around
and found that explorer.exe was the cpu hog. At first i try'd disabling each
service in turn but this didn't seem to help. i started up in safe made and
all was fine and cpu useage was only 1 to 4% at idle.
i booted back into normal mode and was back to 100% cpu.
I disabled UAC and bingo cpu usage fell straight away to normal levels.
has anybody had this problem or know of a fix.
My 32bit vista does not have this problem.
I try'd downloading the 64bit again and each time used the microsoft
download manager
 
Sorry , i didn't double post intentionally, i got errors saying it was
unable to post , so i try'd again.
