Toshiba X205-Sli1 and gaming problems

by G.D.H. - 3/31/09 1:05 PM

Hi, I have a Toshiba X205-Slit with vista 32b,2.0ghz core 2 duo processor, 3gb of ddr2 ram, dual 120gb hard drives and 2 nvidia 8600m gt's running in SLI mode. I generally play games on this computer, but have problems with the processor going to 100% and causing the games to crash in the middle of playing. I have the latest drivers for the graphics cards and the highest amount of ram available in vista 32 bit. I am using direct X 10 and have pretty much done everything I can to get it to run right with games. Is there any reason my processor would go to 100% in games?

P.S. The games this happens with is Fear 2, Need for speed undercover and Fallout 3.

try to check the unwanted service which is start automatically on start up that also creates the problem

MSCONFIG in the Start up or Services tabs ?

Click, Start/ RUN type msconfig click OK.

Run any trusted malwar removal tools ( Malwarebytes ).
