Why does CPU usage shoots up to 80 to 100% when using the webcam in live
messenger 8.5, making it difficult to open other applications such as
explorer or wmp. I've doubled the RAM to 2G and am using 2G ready-boost, but
it doesnt seem to have improved. It used to run at 40-60% on XP. Any
suggestions??
