slow laptop high CPU/R.A.M USAGE.?

Question

my laptop is a Dell Precision with:
Windows 7 professional, 64 bit
Intel i7 16 gig R.A.M.
additional 10gigs backup from memory.

What i use regulary:
Anti-Virus doesn't recognize anything- run daily whole computer scans
De-fragment- scan every month and use if over 3%
Registry cleaner- multiple times daily (after every time on internet)

notice over half the time. my laptop is using 90-100% of all 4 cores and over 80% R.A.M.
at the times i am only using 1 window/program. when closed program it remains like this for a long time.

looking through the computer there are no which stands out background programs running. no updates required and/or running.

laptop/software cost over $2,000. i cannot afford any down time. use it for everything included school and work. this is my first business laptop. a few of programs are slightly different.

There is something that is running in the backround that is using up all that cpu and ram power. First check task manager under proccessess. then scan with as many anti virus softwares you can find. (make sure you uninstall them after you scan once because this would slow down your computer a lot with all of those on there at one time) Thats basically all you can do. Google is your last resort

Hey there,
You can speed up your pc and get rid of viruses, worms and trojans by cleaning up your register. A good free program is CCleaner. Link here http://bitly.com/UrAOUg
