abeermuhammad Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Hi, I'm a new member to this forum and I hope someone can help me out with my issue. My cpu lags randomly especially while playing audio and video. I followed the link here to get to the solution of my problem. But I'm kind of lost as to what I should do next...Some snapshots of the Windows Performance Analyzer are attached below: Computer Specs: OS: Win 7 64-bitProcessor: Intel ® Core i5-2410M @ 2.30 GHzRAM: 4 GBModel: DELL Inspiron N5110
MagicAndre1981 Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 expand the HalTscStallExecutionProcessor node in picture 3 more to see more details.also which power plan do you use?
abeermuhammad Posted January 24, 2012 Author Posted January 24, 2012 Oh I'm sorry I didn't see the reply. I thought I'd be notified via email. My bad. I'm attaching the pic 3 expanded node. I've experimented with all kinds of power modes, it lags even on high performance.
MagicAndre1981 Posted January 25, 2012 Posted January 25, 2012 can you zip the trace, upload it adn send me a link?
MagicAndre1981 Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 I can't download the trace. Can you upload it to mediafire.com or rapidshare.com?
abeermuhammad Posted January 27, 2012 Author Posted January 27, 2012 can't, those are blocked on my university lan =( are there any other sites?
MagicAndre1981 Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 do you use a Microsoft Live ID? It includes a SkDrive where you can upload 25GB of files
MagicAndre1981 Posted January 29, 2012 Posted January 29, 2012 the NDIS driver causes some huge spikes:Total = 3968 for module ndis.sysElapsed Time, > 65536 usecs AND <= 131072 usecs, 1, or 0.03%Update the Dell Wireless 1702 802.11b/g/n drivers and test it again.
abeermuhammad Posted January 31, 2012 Author Posted January 31, 2012 Yeah it's already up-to-date. I thought it WAS the driver cause it keeps dropping wireless connection back home. So I believe it's a faulty driver... I guess i need to get it replaced. I've disabled it for now.
abeermuhammad Posted January 31, 2012 Author Posted January 31, 2012 Okay, so new problem... 0.0 My fan has been running very aggressively for the past two days.. I didn't know what the issue was so I go into Task Manager and discover svchost.exe is taking up about 30-50% of the CPU memory. Once I kill that task, the fan stops with its loudness. I did a trace for it and attached it HERE. Is this also related to my wireless driver? Or have I been infected with a malware or virus of some sort? =/ AARgh this Dell is really driving me crazy.
MagicAndre1981 Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 no, it's one of those 4 services:Stop one service after the other with the Services MMC Snapin (services.msc) and check which services caused this issue.
abeermuhammad Posted January 31, 2012 Author Posted January 31, 2012 I tried stopping the services, the fan would still go on - some of the services such as Function Discovery Resource Publication didn't stop... Now I have System Interrupts taking 15% of the CPU, whereas none of the processes are taking up any CPU memory in the task manager. Please see attached. =(
MagicAndre1981 Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 can you make a new trace? This also captures DPC/ISR issues.
