pascal 0 Posted December 31, 2001 hi, i 've got a problem with windows 2000 advanced server. When i even install with the minimum of hardware, windows 2000 is running with 100 % cpu usage process: 'system' (not system idle process) after installing sp2, before restarting, the system idle process becomes 100 % for about 2 minutes. After that the system is again running 100 %. Also after reboot. I have got an abit th7 II Raid motherboard (Pentium IV). Had anyone had this problem also ? Please let me know, or can you give me tips. Pascal Share this post Link to post

Then why in the world are you running advanced server? If you need the benefits of a server OS, go down to Win2k Server. If you are only using this computer for games, internet, etc., then use Win2k Pro or WinXP. Using an OS with more features than you will ever need WILL make your system work harder - that should be obvious! Now, that said, you still shouldn't be seeing 100% CPU usage... if you INSIST on staying with advanced server, then you can try going into the services control panel and disabling all the services you don't need.
