My cpu constantly hits 100%. For example, when I move my mouse over the page I see it jump to around 50%. When I scroll the page up and down it hits 100%.
I have plenty of avalible ram. Have down a virus scan, and checked for spyware. Win98se P3 667mhz. 128ram.
I also found that some video files stutter when I play them because the cpu is at 100%. When I ran Spybot, the cpu was at 100%. This doesn't seem to be specific to any one program.
Any solutions or general advice on cpu performance would be welcome.
thank you.
Am using a utility called Process Explorer to monitor cpu.

System resouses are 54% free. Does extra ram improve cpu performance?

if your computer is a clone not name brand like dell, ibm or hp/compaq, you have a post screen that shows your cpu speed, floppy, hd & rom drives, ram, serial & parallel ports plus other things. this screen shows up before windows even starts loading.

if just 3 windows for internet explorer opened with nothing else in the background like anti-virus or firewall for 52% which i have both going plus 3 pages at 50%. check your msconfig/startup to see what you have running that shouldn't be.
