Can we recheck these figures

I seem to have used an old question I have since revised. Under Commit
Charge on the Performance tab what are the Total, the Limit, and the Peak?
Have you tried pagefile monitor yet?
I would not bother about hardware interupts. Just concentrate on what
programme application may be responsible for unexpected CPU usage.
