G73-A2 System Interrupts

Hello fellow mates, I have a problem concerning my new laptop which I got 2 days ago. I will explain what have I done with my laptop thus far, if any evidence for what the solution would be, it could be by knowing what I have done.

The system interrupts as you know is a process in resource manager which works 1 core all the way to the max. I have yet to find the reason or cause for it, so I am looking for some solutions or fixes which may find the cause of the problem.

When I first received my laptop, I burned the back-up discs first, took 6 discs and afterwards I continued to delete bloatware that was pre-installed on it. I downloaded my F-Secure, and continued to install other programs like firefox, steam, ventrilo, and eventually my SC2 beta. Now, that was the first day, on the second day I woke up, I started up my SC2 beta, and looked at my resource manager only to recognize that it started eating 10%-15% all time.

I have looked to google for solutions and I have tried the "disable high definition audio." So now I'm kinda stuck to what I should do next, I was planning on calling ASUS to see what kind of help they could give me.

I'll give you guys a screenshot of it in resource manager and task manager.

I'm not very computer literate, but I know my way around windows 7.

If you are not familiar with the system specs I'll give them here:

17.3'' LCD
Intel core i7 720QM 1.6GHz
8GB RAM
ATI Mobility Radeon HD5870
Windows 7 Home Premium

Thank you.

 

This isn't a G73JH issue. I suggest asking in a Windows 7 forum or something... Or whatever program it is you are using.

I don't understand why people assume because some program or something went wrong, they think it's a G73 problem. G73 is just hardware, not a program.
- You just thought the G73JH just decided to use full processing on one core? You say you are well versed in Windows 7, I would have thought you'd known to post your issue with Windows 7 forum or whatever program you are using, not a Asus forum. Don't blame Asus for this issue.

I don't understand why you think Asus would know the answer to your problem. This is an i7 720QM from intel, not some different processor specifically modified by Asus to do the above. Differentiate the difference between hardware and software issue and then....

Why don't you go ask Blizzard? We are not Blizzard Employees or Starcraft 2 developers.

Post in the appropriate forum...

 

Didn't mean any disrespect, but I love this machine, and by no means was I trying to point my finger at ASUS that it was their fault the cores are running like this.

Sorry if it seemed that way, but as I was trying to use my sources for help. I'll head over to the proper forum then.

Good day.

 

Yeah sorry for being so harsh, but if you google, Starcraft 2 is known for CPU problems. It's horribly optimized for multi-core and really only wants to use 1 core. It's just Blizzard making a game that can run well on single core computers.

If you look at WoW, WoW has better performance on high performance single core/dual core procesors than on Quads.

It's a Blizzard thing. And now they are part of Activision, I wouldn't hold my breath for miracles.

 

Hmm for some odd reason when it just stays a desktop, it is all normal... like the cores don't fluctuate and it just stays even... I think it might be Blizzard as you might have guessed.

Odd, but it seems highly likely that it was the cause. Oh well, sorry if I caused some distress or what not, I can consider this problem solved.

 

eh! atleast its not volition or THQ.........man RFG was bad but Saints Row 2 was just horrid, and to say anything about the quality of customer support would be pure heresy!
