For some reason when I open the task manager the memory is always jumping up and down constantly. Lets say I open up the task manager and there are 25 processes running on the cpu section they all "jump around" from 0-any number. And I dont know if this causes me to lose the ability to double click to open up anything. The only way to get my double clikc back is to restart my pc. But the memory jumping always happens 24/7. I put up this hijack report just incase it helps. Please help me guys I never seen this problem before.

Hello and welcome to techspot:)

Do you mean the mem. usage in the task manager?
I suggest you update your windows xp, and run a complete virusscan
or even doing a ram test. Sorry, i forgot the download link but it should appear in the download tabs above.

Good luck.
 
Hi. If you suspect a malware causing the trouble on your system, please read this first: https://www.techspot.com/vb/topic65943.html before deciding if you want to start the cleaning process. If you do, read this to help you: https://www.techspot.com/community/...lware-removal-preliminary-instructions.58138/

Few pointers:
* Place your HiJackThis.exe Program in the folder C:\Program Files\HiJackThis (create a folder if it doesn't exist)
* Rename the HiJackThis.exe file to something else like HiJackThis1991.exe, since some malware hides from the original file name
* Post the HJT log accompanied with an AVG Antispyware Log as a .txt or .log attachments in the Security and Web section of the forum.


Open up task manager, either by right clicking the start bar and going to Task Manager or pressing CTRL + ALT + Del keys simultainiously and go to the processes tab and see what is taking up your CPU time. Note that System Idle Process should read ~100% if no processes are using the PC.
 
Hi.. well, first off looking at your HJT log things look MOSTLY clean, however, I see evidence that you've had spyware or viruses in the past. I'm not seeing any services loading at login that look like a virus scanner- do you have one loading currently?

I see that NAVLogon DLL called, which is Norton/Symantec Anti-Virus, but I don't see the other corresponding services that you would expect with that.

Memory useage fluctuating is not uncommon, unless it's large numbers by a single process. That in and of itself doesn't worry me. You say you lose your ability to double click- is there any other symptoms that come when this happens? What happens when you try to double click?

If you go into the control panel and under mouse properties, you can change the mouse sensitivity. After you've lost the double click ability, does changing these settings help bring it back or not?

I hope this helps some.. can you describe more exactly what problem you're wanting our help with? Your initial post isn't too clear what the problem is and what symptoms you have. Hope I can help some...
 
system idle is nothing to be afraid of- system idle means your machine is doing NOTHING!

I see nothing in that video of concern to me in performance measures or in terms of processes that worry me, honestly.
 
System Idle is the percentage of your processor time that is not currently in use.

So, if processes that run in the background such as system services, drivers, anti-virus, communications software, and the such need a little bit of CPU time for "housekeeping" or whatever purposes they need, they'll take the time they need. System Idle will then go down accordingly.

If system idle shows 99%, that means your machine is doing nothing. If your SnagIt software needs 25% of the CPU to do its stuff, though, the MAX that system idle will be is 75%.

Random jumps are of no real concern. It's major trends that I'd worry about, for example if system idle were 50% or less on average when you had no other major programs running, and that's over a minute period.

Does that make sense?
 
about me loosing the double click its usually when i'm messing around with winamp and fl studio but ithink it comes from the winamp. I tried recording it but since i lost the double click i couldn't save it. it seems to come from no where. and when it happens everything goes fast like the winamp when u go to credits it seems speed up and the bar that is vertically when ur typing it blinks faster than normal too. I'm going to try and record and see if i can catch this.

yea it does thanks i just thought it was the other way around.
 
Be sure you don't have any keys or buttons that are sticking when this happens. Also, you shouldn't need to double click something to save a file- menus work with single clicks almost always.

Also, check the mouse settings like I said to see if you can adjust to bring back the double click somehow. Also, does it affect your typing at all? IE does holding down a key repeat faster or slower?
 
yea i know but the video program i used i needed to double click on the icon to stop the video then save dats wat i ment. And the typing thing i havent tried it but i'm going to try and record it with another program hopefully i'll cath it.

I Captured the damn thing as u can see how the things went very fast. its 62mb and i'm sorry if it a big file but the video is no more then 2 minutes long i will post as soon i'm done uploading ohh sorry thanks for the heads up...still uploading...
 
Please don't double post- if you have more info to add, just edit your original post. Saves quite a bit of real estate on the screen, and avoids making the mods angry!

You can always single click on an icon and then hit enter to open up whatever program- just remember, anything you can do with a mouse, you technically can do with a keyboard. Just sometimes it's not as friendly. (Many times, it's actually more friendly once you get used to it...)
