Slowed Down Pentium 400
LockedMy Pentium II 400mhz 256 RAM(Win XP)has really slowed down. I’ve removed all temp files, temp internet files and cleaned out Windows Prefetch folder. At idle my system is still using between 20 – 40% of processing power1 i’ve updated Norton Antivitus 2003 Pro – no viruses, I’ve run Spybot and Adaware – no spyware. Task Manager shows 37 processes and the two which use all of this cpu time are cidaemon.exe (9-11%) which I believe is the anti-virus software and System Idle Process which is using the bulk of the cpu capacity enenwhen i have no programs running.
Help and advice please/
Thanks
