I've ran a virus scan and a malware scan and it found none. I did click "all users" and I'm still not sure what numbers you are looking for, whs. Under the CPU column, the numbers are 09 and below with most at Then there is one that is at 92 and this is the Microsoft Windows Search Index listing.
Not sure what numbers you are looking for. As requested could you post a screenshot. Little hint - if you want the snips to be more readable, use. Also, sometimes it is better to provide the link to Photobucked, Image Shack, etc. May be a good idea to turn Search Indexer off. It is one of the the first things I do when I re-install on my computers, as it can actually slow the system down. Easy enough to do. Right click on each drive, select Properties, and uncheck the box for Index this drive And follow the instructions.
I want to thank everyone for their input. Sorry if I sounded so computer dumb but I am. Running much better and all issues resolved, for now anyway. Thanks again as I really appreciate the advise from all. LH thanks for the info on turning of search index, that made a noticeable difference on my set up.

Irv S. However, in case that the issue occurs in Clean Boot Mode, most possible cause is the confliction between memory sticks. I suggest that you install a new system on another partition as a test. If the issue still occurs, maybe one of your hardware device does not support more than 6GB memory. Going through the list of services associated with it, I found that disabling the superfetch service returned me to relatively normal operation.
Sure enough, my cpu usage has returned to normal. I am most definately running a bit OS having replaced my old 32bit vista some time ago. And yes, it was a clean format for the 64bit installation process. It wouldnt read 7GB which I currently have running if it were a 32bit version of vista home.
I applied Arthur's recommendation and performed a clean boot, but the issue remains although it's not an "in your face" issue, but reoccurs whenever I do something on my machine. The process eating up CPU is svchost. Code Snippet svchost. Now the tricky part: DcomLaunch has RPC as dependency, and basically all important services acces it depend on it. Same goes for PnP. Vista exhibits the problem whereas WinXP works fine.
Any further troubleshooting that can be performed to get rid of the problem? I really need 8 GB memory for my virtual machines. All seemed fine until I clicked on Start and typed "msconfig". Then explorer. It could be a good information pointing to the resolution. Clean boot made 8g run stable for me. Now, you will be able to see several svchost. Doing this, will open the Services tab in which some of the services will be highlighted. These highlighted services will be the ones that are associated with the problematic svchost.
After you have identified the services that are causing the svhost. When you have determined the suspected service, first ensure that no other services or processes rely on this service, then right-click on it and select Stop Service.
