Thanks for the help in reviewing the logs.

I have localized the issue on my systems. It was the Svchost.exe -k HPservice. this seervice runs to monitor the network for HP printers.

I disabled it. I can still use the HP net printing but the system does not run at 50% cpu utilization.

Again thanks for the help.

funny thing......I'd noticed that on my home rig about a week ago as well, and it's starting to crop up in some of the work rigs here too.....wonder if a kb kicked it off.

Regardless, glad it worked; hope you stick around, as you obviously know your way around the pc, and we can always use good minds around here...

see ya,

v
