Solve : Task Manager List of Processes? |
|
Answer» Is it possible to make a copy of the items listed in the Task MANAGER? I don't know what most of them are, and as there are 40 - 43 processes going on I was hoping to make an easy check list to find out. Hand writing them is a drag. I have 83 processes running ATM... Thanks! Even if my problem turns out to have nothing to do with the Task Manager list, this is very helpful information.There is absolutely no reason to play with processes. All processes come from two sources: 1. startups (these, not processes, can be controlled and TRIMMED down). 2. Windows processes (which better are left alone).Well, here's my list, if anyone wants to offer further comment. When a couple of these items bounce around rapidly in CPU usage - 50! 2! 4! 50! 24! 30! 2! 24! 50! and pop in and out of the list it makes me think something is trying to execute and not being able to and that's what causing overheating.

In your report you don't list the most important column - CPU usage. Download Process Explorer: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx Unzip ProcessExplorer.zip, and double click on procexp.exe to run the program. Click on View > Select Colunms. In addition to already pre-selected options, make sure, the Command Line is selected, and press OK. Go File>Save As, and save the report as Procexp.txt. Attach the file to your next reply.

System Idle Process (CPU NOT used) is listed at 95.38% Quote from: Broni on January 29, 2011, 08:56:46 PM Your CPU usage is perfectly fine. Ok, the laptop has cool open air surrounding it, plenty of hard drive space for me to FIDDLE with my personal files, no conflicting anti virus programs, and the CPU isn't being overtaxed with processes, yet it still overheats and snaps off. What should I test next? Quote the CPU isn't being overtaxed with processesWell, I'm not sure in what language should I explain it better, so one more time in English - your CPU usage is fine! Download System Information for Windows (SIW free version) No installation required. After it scans your computer, navigate to Hardware>Sensors and post all info from there.

I would have gotten back to you sooner, but my computer overheated and snapped off. As you can see in my last reply: Ok, the laptop has cool open air surrounding it, plenty of hard drive space for me to fiddle with my personal files, no conflicting anti virus programs, and the CPU isn't being overtaxed with processes, yet it still overheats and snaps off. What should I test next? I acknowledged, in English, that the CPU isn't the problem. As for SIW, I did install the free version, but I couldn't find any instructions for doing the actual scan. Just double click on downloaded siw.exe file |
