With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution

The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it.

Windows 2000 server - CPU 100% - SYSTEM Process

Asked by Chadwhite in Computer CPU Processors, Server Anti-Virus, Windows 2000 Server

Tags: cpu, system, windows, server, process

I have a windows 2000 server. CPU is running up to 100% for the past 18 hours. The server is a file server and normally the CPU is at 18% MAX. The only recent changes to the server are an update to the Trend Office Scan from version 7.3 to 8.0. I have run sysinternals process explorer and it shows that "SYSTEM" is eating all the CPU. The server is a HP DL360 with 3.0GHz Xeon and 2Gb RAM. I have updated several other servers to Office Scan 8.0 and did not have the same issue. I am beginning to believe that it may be a hardware issue. I uninstalled Trend all together but did not do a restart. The CPU remained maxed out. This server is rarely on the internet so I do not suspect malware, however I ran both spybot and Trend's malware detection. Nothing was detected. How can I further troubleshoot this issue? Most file storage is located on a SAN connected via fibre switch. Thanks for any help.
