Cpu spikes
So I have a HP Pavillion d7 notebook PC.
Lately I have started paying attention more to my system and realized that my CPU is spiking randomely. Sometimes it will spike from 4% to 20%. Other times it'll spike all the way up to 50% and higher. I notice that when this happens my computer may freeze and lag up for a bit.
I've taken the computer to the shop and they said I may have to buy a new computer, because running a virus scan may not fix this problem. When I check my task manager nothing add's up to these high spikes of % usage.
I've run CClearner and cleaned my registry. I've run malware bites I believe it's called. I'm at the end of my rope when it comes to this.
Has anyone had a similar problem and found a solution?
