CPU running at 100% for fm.exe (8.0.1)

retired_brandyhuber1973 · 11-22-2007, 03:16 PM

No problems, I noticed high CPU usage when it hits 15:00 on a saturday, for obvious reasons. Its fine.

I have a E6750 which is slightly overclocked, so I guess maybe other people might find it more problematic

What !? why is this bug back again?

its not a bug. runs just fine. mine is at 19%, spiking at 49%.

im guessing you are running a pc thats a few years old.

as much as i bagged SI for screwing up the release with the bugs, this time they've done a stirling job.

lets not start dreaming up new problems </BLOCKQUOTE>

The original poster has a dual 2 core processor, hardly old.

Before criticising people for dreaming up problems you could consider that just because you havent got the problem others may do so...

Just to show off, My quad core runs between 1-12%

100% is not acceptable tho, gl getting that fixed

Have you tried doing that msconfig thing and closing down a few programmes that you don't need but run in the background?

I am not too sure what the 'msconfig' thing is....

I don't run any other programs, I even disabled autoprotect from my Norton antivirus. </BLOCKQUOTE>

Start > run> then type msconfig into the box, then it brings up the system config utility

click on startup (accross the top) then untick any applications you dont need to have running when your pc starts up)

hope this helps

I am not sure if it's a good idea to reccomend msconfig tweaking for someone who don't have a clue about how to see a cpu usage or so.
I can smell some crashed pc's tonight...
