I dont have any automated tasks on my system,windows updates are set to manual in administrative services,no auto virus scanners etc,only when I say so.
I have streamlined the services in XP,as most of it is garbage,and I have just 13 processes running in Task Manager,again streamlined for gaming.
I think the streak is somehow linked to cloudy/rough days at sea.When it was clear and calm it wasnt there.And it is still there a bit after a reboot.
Well i'm off to bed now,and will have a check tomorrow after the PC has cooled down,that way I can tell if it has anything to do with overheating.And speaking of that I just ordered some Arctic Silver 5 silver paste for my CPU,so...will see if things improve with that.

Goodnight all
