You´re almost there /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
Those were the values for memory-consumption...
Just to the left of them is a column with values mostly showing "00". Those are the values for CPU-time each process uses.
On a "normal" system, the only major process consuming CPU-time is the "idle-process", who does what it says, nothing /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
I suspect there is one process on your system that consumes a lot of CPU-time, and I doubt it´s the idleprocess.
Could you have a look?

P.S.: I just noticed your vsmon.exe consumes a lot of memory. This process belongs to ZoneAlarm ( I guess you have this firewall installed, true? ).
There are numerous reports that ZoneAlarm consumes 100% CPU-time on some computers. If it turns out your vsmon.exe process is the one who needs almost all of your CPU-time I´d suggest to uninstall ZoneAlarm and use another firewall instead.
