Sorted it, it's the coolsrv.exe service belonging to CPUCool. I tried to set the service to disabled but it started again and thats why it was reading 100%.

If you run Genome it will use 100%

It uses all the spare CPU cycles

and why would u be using a cpu cooler in win2k/xp? if you install with acpi enabled (most ppl do who aren't hideous freaks of nature who think every lsat .00000001 kbyte/sec of mem bandwidth or pci bandwidth matters) then it'll send halt commands to the cpu on its own w/ OUT the coolcpu prog or whatever.

I disabled ACPI bacause it was having some bad effects on my mouse. I don't know why it was happening but when I took ACPI off it was fine.

I guess I'm a freak but who cares at 32.C Idle (No OC) :)

To upload the pic I used :-
