| 68684 | 2002-08-06 08:32:00 | On my new 1.7GHz Athlon running Win XP, something called wswpd.exe runs continuously, hogging 75% of the CPU. Is this normal? What does wswpd actually do? Cheers Derek |

| 68685 | 2002-08-06 08:39:00 | Its something to do with a printer driver, I know it was used by a NEC SuperScript Laser 660, may be used by others, but I believe its an old 16 bit driver?? Its probably launched from one of the .ini files (system.ini or win.ini?) Memorys a bit dim.... REM it out and see what happens? |

| 68687 | 2002-08-06 09:05:00 | Thanks guys. It turned out to be associated with an old Panasonic laser printer I'd tried to install, but Win XP didn't like it. I'd completely forgotten about deleting the associated printer drivers. BTW, when it was busily working away hogging 75% of my CPU hour after hour, day after day, what was it ACTUALLY doing? Cheers Derek |
