HP Envy 15t-3000 cpu @ 100%

danito44 · 05-06-12, 07:32 AM

Hi guys,

I am new to this forum, but a friend of mine suggested that I could come here and find help from many of you.

About 3 months ago I bought an HP Envy 15t-3000 laptop with an i7-2670QM cpu, 6.00gb DD3 and with an ATI Radeon 7690 card.

About a month ago, the laptop started to freeze, ie I would be watching a film and all the sound starts to go weird, using word and very slow on switching windows or moving the mouse, just browsing over the internet and it freezes/lags.

I tried several things, and one time I was just making a disk check and the HDD fried. Got it replaced hoping it was from the HDD but after about an hour of use, it started doing all these things again.

I have tried re-installing the flash plugin, re-installing the OS, all programs, even the AMD Catalyst Manager still with no luck.

Here is a link to a video to what I am experiencing with my laptop. During this video, you can notice that the CPU spikes a lot reaching 100% and sometimes it stays there for about 4 mins which I think is making some real harm to my laptop.

Please guys, I would appreciate help.

Thanks in advance

Welcome!

What program is spiking the PC to 100%? That would be helpful to know as you could then fix the issue I would imagine.

Hi,

I do not know that. Sometimes it is just doing nothing, sometimes on Word, or paint, or chrome, or explorer. I believe everything.

Thanks

Let me elaborate...

Open up task manager, and sort by CPU USE. What specific application is spiking to 100%

Ok,

sidebar.exe and audiodg.exe take about up to 20% when this happens.

I tried disabling the audio for the laptop in device manager hoping it would solve the issue, but the cpu still spiked to 100% and slowed the laptop.

Here are some pictures. hope they help.

Thanks

I am having a similar problem.

2820 QM 2.3GHz processor and 17" 3D Laptop

I tried everything...from updating graphics and drivers, restoring system and running in safe mode.

At the end, i realized that if i move or jerk my laptop, only then CPU hikes to 100%.

I believe it is an issue related to internal placing of laptop parts.
