Loading the central processor while working on a computer can cause significant discomfort: from slowing down, and sometimes restarting the computer, to more serious interference with the operating system. Therefore, it is advisable to fix the problem, of course, immediately after it appears.
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, the computer may not have been defragmented for a long time. For normal performance, it is advisable to defragment it every six months. It is located in the following place:
•Start
•All programs
• Standard
• Service
•Disk Defragmenter
If this does not help to solve the problem completely, then in part it is for sure.
Step 2
Perhaps the computer is loaded with unnecessary programs from startup. You need to check this item as follows:
•Start
• Execute
• msconfig
There, see the "autoload" item. Some standard programs, sometimes games, offer to add their files to startup, but this is by no means a mandatory item. Therefore, from there you can safely exclude only programs you do not need all the time. Of course, the antivirus and system processes should be left behind.
Step 3
A virus can be a definite source of CPU utilization. If you are using a free or "standard" antivirus, then it is possible that a virus is active on your system. You need to check the one-time and free antivirus Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool. If he finds something, then everything needs to be removed, and a more effective antivirus installed (for example, Internet Security)
Step 4
It is also possible that the situation is more simple, and the whole point is that you have installed a lot of programs and are using them at the same time. Those. RAM just can't handle them. In this case, you need to either increase the RAM, or get rid of some programs. To find out which programs are currently in the process, you can use the following key combination (you need to press them at the same time): Ctrl + Alt + Del. And watch the whole process of CPU load. Thus, you can get rid of unnecessary load by uninstalling some programs.
