Second, by green light I assume you mean the hard disk activity light? Open Task Manager and click on the PROCESSES tab. Click twice on the word CPU at the top of the cpu column (this sorts that column with highest USAGE at the top). What process shows the highest usage (and what's the number)? SORRY Allen I'm not as good as you on here mate , where do i find task manager on here , lol , i did say i wasn't that good with computers .Press the CTRL - SHIFT - ESC keys at the same time.ok i have found what you said and i have also done what you asked of me but the cpu numbers are forever changing so wot now .OK i have pressed the ctr shift and Esc keys together what to do know .Quote from: Allan on November 02, 2009, 01:40:25 PM
