[QUOTE="Jim1013, post: 701948, member: 68883"] Hello I am posting this to see if anyone has the same issue and/or help anyone else. I have/had an issue with the "system:4 process" (hardware interrupts) spiking CPU usage at 100%. It would cause whatever I was doing, especially gaming to lag for a few sections, but even did it during regular web browsing activity. In the latter the main thing i'd notice was the mouse becoming juttery for for maybe 2 seconds. For a while I kept thinking it was a dirty mousepad until I started using process explorer. Occurance somewhat random but - would often be about once every 15-20 minutes and be over very quickly, although it seemed to mostly only happen if there was some activity rather than just leaving the computer idle. It only started recently. System was a I7-6700, 16GB Ram Running Win 7 64bit. Since then I upgraded the CPU and motherboard - not due to this issue - but the problem still continues. It is a shame because the 2017 version was everything I wanted in an A.V. light fast, non intrusive, free. After the forced upgrade I was then forced to pay for the upgrade as bitdefender was interfering with displayfusion causing massive RAM usage and the only way I could see to whitelist was do so with the paid version. I'd been so happy with BD that I gave in and paid for the upgrade. However I have been very disapointed with the Bitdefender 2018. It is heavy on the usage and intrusive. I think i've had success by disabling bitdefender. I don't recall the problem happening before the forced update to bitdefender 2018 and not much else had changed with my computer. I am progressively now turning bitdefender functions back on after the problem not occuring for a while with it off. I shall post further results, but hopefully this will be of help to anyone else with the same problem. [/QUOTE]
