network, screws computer

[Todd0]

my friend is copying a file off my computer right now, and im looking at my cpu usage - sitting on 80+ % WTF?!?! anyone have any ideas, or had this problem. can i fix it with a format, or is there a chance it could be a hardware issue.

A format should fix it, but that seems a little extreem.
I don't see how it could be a hardware issue. After all, I used to have a P2, and that was fine to transfer files over my network.

Try repairing windows

yeh, thanx i will try that soon

Do have other network issues? Slow downloads? Random disconnects? Anything like that?

Reformat, or try a new network card.

does it only do this when u are copying files?

 

[Todd0]

i had other network problems, such as when i used a bit torent client, that needed to use a port in my modem, i would get cpu surges, but then i used a different network card.

my downloads are normal speed, and everything else seems fine.

and at the moment iv only noticed it when i am copying files, however i installed oblivion the other day, and it took ages, like it took longer then my friend 3.0ghz pentium (alot longer) when my cpu was clocked at 2676mhz

maybe you might want to try to repair it, might have some missing files.....
