If you have a firewall running or antivirus that could be kicking over when you run Helios.
Bottom line, if you have 512MB RAM and your video card is sharing that RAM you need MORE RAM!!!!!!!!!
1GB minimum. (pc and video combined)

Thank you for your reply. I purposefully left out info on the computer because it is not relavent to the issue.
Yes I have adequate ram and I do run antivirus/firewall.
The issue is that when Helios timer server is running CPU usage is 60+ percent. Close just that one program and usage goes to ZERO. That's with everything else running that normally runs.
Why be concerned? Because CPU usage generates heat, wear and tear on the computer, and slows down any other software that one might want to use.
I have seen this issue discussed before but could not find the topics when i searched.
