CPU Usage PLEASE HELP!!!! Hey guys, I'm having a CPU usage issue. My firefox and other browsers work fine until I start playing videos. Anything from veoh or some of my favorite personal sites, the CPU Usage goes up to like 100%, and everything starts freezing on me.
What do I do to fix this?

Make sure the sound enhancements on your playback device are disabled. Those enhancements can eat a lot of CPU. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway - 2 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista and Windows7, sometimes Ubuntu and Fedora CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to 2.5GHz Quad Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse terrible devices, who wants them Hard Drives 5x HDD, 2x SSD, 6x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 |

For sound enhancements right click on the speaker icon next to the clock and go to "Playback Devices". Then you double click on the one that has the green default mark and click on the "enhancements" button. There you can make the settings. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway - 2 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista and Windows7, sometimes Ubuntu and Fedora CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to 2.5GHz Quad Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse terrible devices, who wants them Hard Drives 5x HDD, 2x SSD, 6x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 CPU Usage PLEASE HELP!!!! problems?
