Windows Forum / Windows XP / Performance and Maintainance / April 2007System Performance
My System Idle Process is running at 95% to 98% slowing my computer dramatically. It's a brand new computer and ran like lightening until started installing the 2007 software and/or something else happened. I'm running 2007 Microsoft Office Professional 2007 on a Gateway MX6426 Notebook with AMD Turion 64 Mobile Technology ML-40. Operates at 2.2GHz. Memory: 1024 MB DDR Hard Drive: 80 GB PATA 4200 RPM I'm defragged and done everything I know of to find the glich but nothing changes. I'm ready to uninstall everything and start over and I really don't want to do that. Can anyone help?!?!? > My System Idle Process is running at 95% to 98% slowing my computer > dramatically.

The System Idle process is what runs when nothing else is running. 95% - 98% usage for it is what you *want*. I assume you are complaining about Office 2007. What parts run slow? What are you doing when they do? How quickly do you *expect* them to run? What are you comparing their performance with? ______ Dennis >My System Idle Process is running at 95% to 98% slowing my computer >dramatically.

System idle process at 95% to 98% means exactly that - the system is idle and the CPU has absolutely nothing to do for 95% to 98% of the time. It is just a placeholder to account for the portion of the CPU time that is not being utilized. You could try uninstalling Office 2007 and then reinstalling it. And be sure to get any and all of the relevant updates for Office 2007 from the Microsoft Update site. Good luck Ron Martell Duncan B.C.
