Thanks for the suggestion.  Unfortunately it doesn't apply in this situation
- - the antivirus agent on this computer is AVG and it doesn't run in realtime
- - it does a full scan every night though.  (The machine itself is behind a
firewall that does all the antivirus scanning at that level so for my
purposes on a trading only machine I can turn off the real-time stuff.)

I really wish there was a way to see which device drivers were using the
processor time.  I suspect it's a conflict between TS and a device driver -
if I could only identify which driver(s) it is...

Sincerely,

Nigel

I just noticed that my CPU usage was also at 100%.

Checking on what was causing it, I found that it was an application called
"ccAp" which is part of Norton AntiVirus. It was apparently trying to scan
my TradeStation real-time feed!

I set it to not do that and it seems to be working OK again so perhaps that
was your problem.
