  2. Audiodg.exe Spikes Cpu Usage

    Every 5 minutes or so audiodg.exe spikes my cpu usage to about 50% and any audio im playing cuts out and then comes back a second or 2 later. The video is completely fine and it's not a problem with
    my USB Headset. audiodg.exe stays at low cpu usage when it's not spiking.

    Solutions I've tried:

    1. turning off audio enhancements
    2. reinstalling lan, and audio drivers
    3. turning off HPET
    4. lowering the sound quality in control panel
    5. DPC Latency checker (no change when spiking)
    None of these solutions work. Please help.
     
  3. Explorer constantly spiking CPU usage for Win 10

    Hi. Thank you for your answer. I tried all your suggestions, but nothing helped.

    Clean bot seems helped at first but no after some hours spikes came back and now spiking more often with every hour of PC working.

    Same happened also without clean boot.

    Any other suggestions what to try ?

    Just to let you know that I worked with Win 7 before with even more programs installed than now and I did not switched off my PC for weeks and CPU usage was lower in general not to talk about any spikes in CPU, newer noticed anything like that...

    Thanks

    Laptop breaks and CPU spikes

    Bluetooth mouse causing CPU spike?

    Hi, I've been having an on and off issue lately with CPU spikes seemingly causes by a Bluetooth mouse. The easiest way for me to cause the issue is to let the mouse sit for a minute with no input and then click or move the mouse, at which point a seemingly random service will suddenly spike in CPU usage causing Bluetooth to temporarily disconnect, the keyboard to delay input until the spike is over, and occasionally a beeping through the headphones. The services I've noticed in the spike include Antimalware Service Executable, Thrustmaster Update Service (which has since been uninstalled), and LightunfService (which appears to be tied to ASUS lighting software), but others have topped the list in Task Manager too. The mouse is a Steelseries Rival 3 and all drivers I can find for anything have been updated. Any ideas or tips?
