High CPU Utilization while streaming through Xbox
Hi all. I've got one I wanted to run by this group to see if anyone has run into a similar problem. I currently have a Dell desktop with an AMD Triple Core Phenom that I use as a media library. I stream content from there to my Xbox, mostly audio--it is connected to my audio system. I have other devices on a homegroup which this Dell is a part of, two HP laptops and some portables. Whenever I stream to my Xbox my CPU utilization on the Dell runs as high--and higher--than 90%. I don't run into the same problem when streaming content to one of the laptops. Is this just an inherent limitation when it comes to this CPU or something that I could remedy? I hate to fry the desktop.
I would appreciate any advice that could be offered. Thanks to all.
