My computer was having startup problems. When it starts it loads a lot of tasks (I do that because it has lots of RAM) so I wait for a few minutes. But today it was abnormally long and it still was loading. I opened TASK MANAGER and looked at the CPU usage it turned up SVCHOST.exe was using 99% of CPU and about 150,000-200,000 Memory usage. I kill task and everything is fine except I have no sound. So I restart the computer and this time I decide to wait it through and not to kill task. After a few minutes an error box appears saying some problems with SVCHOST and it ends the process itself. After that the computer fails to function (except for the mouse) and I restart it, but this time SVCHOST is just being used, so I have to kill it to free Memory usage. What is going on, I am sure I have no viruses I ran Norton and found nothing. I am thinking I have too many startup programs, what do you think?
