Svchost.exe hosting the RPCss services take up to 90-100% of the CPU...

Let me know what I have to do to... The 1st log is from HiJack and the 2nd one is from process Explorer...

I did run each and every software of AV and SPYware without success...

Its always the same thread in svchost.exe that take all the CPU :
Kernell32.dll!RegisterWaitForInputIdle+0x4a that just multiply itself, start with 3 thread using approx 33% of the CPU each, at the end (before I power off) it can goes up to 8 thread like this splitting up all the CPU...

The desktop are not affected like the laptop (have a Firewall (zone alarm) and a VPN client (Aventail connect)). The moment this event happensl, the desktop taskbar freezes completly(svchost looks to kill himself and restart), but all opened apps still working and alt-tab to switch, can't open any new apps... For the laptop, we can start anything, but the CPU is busy by svchost.exe.

Thank you in advance... Any advice will be appreciated.

Locate and delete (in safe mode) the "winhelp.hlp" file and reboot.

"The moment this event happensl, the desktop taskbar freezes completly"

When does this happen, the second the computer is started up, or after it has run a while?  Also, does the same thing happen in safe mode?  How do you know that you can not start any more apps on the desktop computers?

kyledude
I'm not familiar with this one:
C:\WINNT\system32\DcPSI.exe

is that part of DAZEL?  what is DAZEL anyway?

You are totally focussed on service host -- and all that is is a major windows task director to execute tasks that other modules call on service host to do the work -- like kernel32, it is the central workhorse that runs processes.

If you forget ALL the logs, realize that service host is nothing more than a butler that serves up stuff for other people -- and if you rephrase your question about what is really going on when the system freezes, we may be able to help you.  At present, I see no way of helping you, without a clearer explanation of exactly what is happening.

Thanks for the feedback guys... To anwser to some of your questions...
-It happen ramdomly on any PC... lap/desktop... while users are working, could be at any time... 5 min after login on the domain or 6 hours after... No apps could be pinpoint at this moment....
-Dazel is our IP printer services...
-Its RPCss that run under svchost.exe that looks to crash... regardless of the logs...
-Why delete winhelp.hlp btw... ??? just curious...

To give you more info...
This bug could appear 6 times on the same PC a day, and the same PC won't have any probs for the nest week, then could crash again...

If you have any clear/specific questions... feel free.
I encountred once in the same malfunction... The same symptoms. I reneamed winhelp.hlp to *.old and restarted the OS causing it to restore the file from system backup. I guess it is somthing to do a link made by SVCHOST process and the winhelp.hlp.

So, Just try to rename it in safe mode and restart your computer... If it wont help... it wont do any harm


Good luck

Cyber
Hey look at this -- couple of these boards at super low prices.  They may climb as the come to a close, but now --

http://search.ebay.com/ASUS-P4T-E_Desktop-PC-Components_W0QQbsZSearchQQcatrefZC6QQfromZR2QQsacategoryZ3667QQsatitle
ZASUSQ20P4TQ2dEQQsbrftogZ1QQsocolumnlayoutZ3QQsofocusZbsQQsorecordsperpageZ50QQsosortorderZ1QQsosortpropertyZ1

Piece that back into a single line, and it will give you a link to the same MBs, below $50.
Oops sorry posted to the wrong thread, this is a problem with the current questioner name baing unreadable.
Just ignore post above, please.
Sorry for the above mess, itcantam, EE has been changing the headers on these questions, and it is very hard right now to keep track of things.

I have a suggestion you could try -- and it might take a day or two to test it out, but it might be the only way you will narrow this bug --

1.  When this happens, do control-alt-delete and go to the processes tab of task manager.  There will normally be 2 service host instances for the system, one for the network, and one for local service, about halfway down.  There may be one or two higher up.  If there are any right at the top, close windows by right clicking on each in the task bar -- see which processes go away that you can't identify by windows on the task bar.  That will tell you which app is spawning the process.

2.  You should also check the server this way too, without closing the processes.

3.  Kill the Dazel print service on the printer (with queues) long enough to determine if that is/is not the problem.

4.  Cyber's fix looks interesting -- he always comes up with original ideas -- try it !!
I will try to delete the hlp asap to see if it could fix this prob...

The thing is once the "bug" happen... We can't do nothing but alt-tab... Not even open Task manager...
We do have now some desktop setup with (FileMon, RegMon, Task Managerk, Process Explorer and a command prompt) open, and ask the users to work with this open... and I just wish that it will ahppen again on those ;)

I already try to kill all task one by one... The only one that brings me back my taskbar was by kill the svchost.exe hosting rpcss, but I had to kill it 5 times before that happen... And I still wait for another PC to crash to do it again to see if I delete only this one if it will have the same effect...

I will came back with news by tomorrow once trying all this.
Thanks again.

<< We can't do nothing but alt-tab... Not even open Task manager...>>

ALMOST CERTAINLY A VIRUS OR WORM !!  

DO EXTENSIVE VIRUS SCANS -- www.trendmicro.com -- online scanner.

Once cleaned, if this persists, reinstall is needed.
We did try trendsmicro, stinger of McAfee... Nothing found as virus...

IF we kill one the the svchost.exe, everything came back to normal... But I know its not RPCss, neither the DNS one... Have to focus on the 2 others to see witch one after we kill it gave us back the control, I'll let you know.
Hmmm....
Found something. i didnt try it my-self but it sounds promising...

Tell me if you wish to implement it on your computer and how it worked...

Itcantam -- If it is the network process you have to kill, that might you are being probed.  Have you gone to your firewall and made sure it is tight?

Go to www.grc.com -- wade through some pages looking for "probe my ports" -- Gibson's site is a great way to test your firewall -- as long as everything comes up stealth, you are safe -- and yes, you can test it from a WS, as all it probes is the WAN IP -- main firewall.
Oki... I did try the renaming of the winhlp32.hlp...

I know now for sure...
That if I kill the svchost.exe that host (Audiosrv, dhcp, messenger, browser, help + support...), I gain back the control over the PC, Start menu work... only thing is that prcss is now takin 100% of CPU... ;)

We did run all anti-virus possible without succes... look like we did create our onw one :( hehe
All this happen when we began to pahse out our Novell environment (IPX) to go full IP.

Thanks

Wish you had said that a long while ago.  Is the novell now gone, or still on line?

<< only thing is that prcss is now takin 100% of CPU >>

Which process?
Are you using GroupWise?

Hi,

try the following: update all critical patches using windows update

i am almost sure its virus attacks,
virus is not infecting you, but doing smth like DDoS
thats why cpu is ~95-100%

Also check your local network for viruses
Hey guys... guess what???

Still have to be tested, our virus came from this article... ;)

http://support.novell.com/cgi-bin/search/searchtid.cgi?/10092225.htm

Have a look, we did upgrade/remove some of our Zen Agent to see if the prob will appear again... But I really doubt.
Woup woup woup... Novell again!!! Just bad luck after bad luck with this F***** agent... We still wait for the "Midas" version of it...

Have a nice week-end and thx to all for the help on this issue... We will have to wait a week or so to see if the symptoms is really dead... I will keep you post.
It's probably a courtesy to all the people who put in time to assign points now to the most accurate answer that led to finding the fix, or else SPLIT points among the answers you feel helped the most get you there.  If the problem continues, you can always ask another Q later.  They become old after 2-5 days  :)))

We're all glad you found it!!
Hi,

Try using the task command to view what service inside the svhost may be causing the crash.  I managed to resolve this on a few machines by disabling ctfmon.exe, (there is a worm that kills the ctfmon and takes its identity) however I dont know if this is relevant or not in your case.

In command prompt type:

tasklist /svc

You will then be able to see inside so to speak and something may stand out.
Uninstall the Indexing service and reinstall. It is in add/remove problems. If that doesn't work (it should) then follow the next step..If this is a sony laptop reply back to me because i will give you a link to the fix for it. It is a known issue with the sony laptop with cpu running at 100% because of svchost.exe. They put out a fix for it..
if you installed any applications recently, more than likely it will be the cause, even updates. i remember that after installing a service pack svchost was running like a killer...97% cpu time, etc. eventually i ended up unistalling the apps and the service pack. then my system was working like a charm. i realised that you're running a os like windows nt or windows 2000 due to %winnt% mentioned. i would suggest that you check to see if the apps are compatible with the os. and also check services to see if there are any unneccessary services starting up.
