Hello,
Occasionally, when watching a video* through Google Chrome, I notice CPU usage goes way up.
Resource Monitor shows it's due to a svchost process in charge of "DComLaunch, PlugPlay, Power".
For one, Sysinternals' psservice.exe says that the PlugPlay service is...

I have SSDs and a well oiled (I think) Windows 7 workstation - 16GB memory and a fast processor. My boot time is extremely slow. I tried booting with everything in MSCONFIG unchecked - but it didn't change my boot time at all. There must be, somewhere, a tutorial or set of steps to follow to...

I watch videos on a site and when I finish watching the bandwidth in DU Meter keeps running at 400-500 KB's/s. It would appear that it's like the videos are still running but they are not because the site and anything to do with it is shutdown. Not even a browser is running. Task manager tells...

A few weeks ago I replaced my work PC with a new one running Windows 7. Recreating my work environment was annoying and took days, trying to make sure I haven't forgotten anything.
