Hi Guys,

My computer has gained an annoying habit of having a load of interrupt requests.... things will be going fine then all of a sudden the computer slows down music starts skipping, and the mouse jumps around the screen instead of moving smoothly...

I checked in the resource monitor and the process at the top is called System Interrupts, which hogs a great deal of the system resources...

After about a minute of faffing around it moves down the list and everything is fine as before.

Now I've updated all my drivers, and Haven't OC'd anything...

Any ideas guys?
 
I have looked through the device manager and there appears to be nothing thats untoward... I think it may be something to do with the NIC as the connection drops when the pc is undergoing the Interrupt process... But can't see anything wrong there!
 
There are a few IRQ's on there...

They all have numbers next to them.. not sure really what I'm looking at so i have attached a screenshot

 
Cheers guys, am at work at the moment.. so will do a bit of a search later on and give it a shot!

Will try and update MoBo drivers when I get in...
