Pc usage goes to 100?

[ringo14]

Ok so my computer is acting up , at first i thought it was a ram issue , but when i am only use 1 gb of ram ( i have 2 gb) my cpu usage goes to 100 then drops to 30 then back to 60 and so on , even on start up it goes to around 50% without anything opened. So i tick the show all process on my task manger and i see alot of svchost , more than 6 running, should i be worried, i heard some of them could be a virus and i also MsMpeng.exe running and it uses 50,000 usage, it uses more memory than google chrome.
So my question is how do i fix this ??? both svchost and MsMpeng.exe worries me , iknow svchost is safe but it also good be a virus.
Any help on these would be greatly appreciated.
Im running windows 7 32 bit.

MsMpeng.exe here use 45MB. For svchost,I have 11 of them.
Download and run Process Explorer,to see more info about processes.
Also update your system specs.

Hello Ringo, please follow Boshko's advice and fully update your system spec using the tutorials he provided? That would help us a lot in getting to the problem.... if there is one.
I must say I'm not surprised or worried with W7 32b using 1G of your total 2G's. Is it causing a problem or are you just worried because you saw the mem usage?
