CPU Usage 100% Problem


100-cpu-usageYesterday, I’ve received an email from Hafnim who is currently having trouble of Windows System CPU usage continues to peek or stays at 100% and asked me for a solution.

I’ve did some research and and it seems like this problem is frequently happened. This issue can be caused by a few possibilities below.
1. Lack of sufficient memory.
2. Hard drive failure.
3. Heavy programs being run in the background.
4. Infections of spywares, worms, trojans, viruses or any other malwares.
5. Slow hardware that cannot sustain heavy applications.
