[QUOTE="EricP63, post: 523800, member: 31845"] CPU is constantly running something because fan is working extra hard and temps are up. This seemed to always be associated with an infection in the past when the computer should be sitting idle. Checking running processes using System Explorer and under svchost.exe there are multiple copies of backgroundTaskHost.exe appearing and disappearing and RuntimeBroker.exe is constantly using CPU time. Everything else seems normal and stable. Is this an infection or something else? Thanks for you help. [/QUOTE]
