Yeah, I've run a System Restore now, which seems to have sorted out the problem and only .NET 2.0 is installed now.

Apologies for not replying sooner. It turns out HP drivers were causing this problem to occur! Good old HP eh!<br />
<br />
Anyhow, all fixed now. Thanks anyway, much appreciated.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
The WMIPRVSE process, currently running under NETWORK SERVICE, is using the majority of my CPU on two workstations here. This problem started occuring last night after .NET 1.1 SP1 was installed on both PCs.<br />
<br />
I've checked the PCs for viruses, but this isn't the cause.<br />
<br />
Although please bear in mind that .NET 2.0 was already installed when .NET 1.1 SP1 was installed. An option in WSUS was accidently set to INSTALL on the .NET 1.1 SP1 option, which caused the auto update to occur.<br />
<br />
Would uninstalling .NET Framework 1.1 fix the problem? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance.

WMIPRVSE process is overloading the CPU

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
