Default System process problem

XP Home has this process, "Image Name" is System and "User Name" is SYSTEM,
which always hover around 30++ in the CPU column.
The overall CPU usage can be from 50 to 100 at other times. When this
happends, the system just hang. And the PC cannot even boot after that.

I did a scan for viruses n malwares in save mode but did not return anything.

Have checked another PC and found its System usage is very low.
What can I do to bring the System usage down on this problematic PC?

Thnks

They should not be run at the same time. Are they?

I suggest you download and run Spybot S & D (freeware version). There
is a freeware version buried in this link:
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/spybotsd/index.html

Please cite a URL that says one has to shut down AVG before running
Malwarebytes.

I'd be interested in seeing a reference to this also. I run AVG on all
my computers and regularly run Malwarebytes. I have never had any type
of interaction between them.

process problem?
