Thanks for the sysinternals link.  I tried some of their stuff but
unfortunately, none of it gets down to the kernel level.  If these guys
can't do that then I guess it's probably impossible to see what kernel
processes/device drivers are spinning the processor other than to deactivate
device drivers one at a time.  I guess I'll just have to lose some of my
screens for a couple of days. Ha.

Thanks a lot for the ideas.

Sincerely,

Nigel

Nigel,

You might try the (free) process explorer utility from sysinternals.com
http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/ProcessExplorer.html
It gives a lot more detail than the standard task monitor.

They have a bunch of very useful and tricky freeware utilities. Definitely
worth a look, there are a bunch of their utilities that I load whenever I
set up a new system.

Steve
