Icetv.exe process eating CPU cycles

pixels · **23rd January 2007, 03:32 PM**

I have a dual boot Vista/MCE2005 system.

In MCE2005, which works fine, is fully patched and seems OK in every respect I've noticed that when the system should be idle, either with MC running or not the icetv.exe process is using over 100Mb ram and is chewing through, usually, more than 50% of my processor cycles and thrashing the hard disk as well.

I'm not sure when this began, I think with my last rebuild, certainly never noticed it before.

Anyone else seeing this behavior? If you have a chance please check the task manager and let me know.

Thanks

I had the same problem a few weeks ago. I couldn't find a fix so I have stopped using Icetv.exe and went back to using MCE's internal download with a restart of mce services.
