belgrano Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 Are you sure that you chose the right patches during installation? Is there any reason not to install OS X directly?

darkosx Posted August 6, 2006 Author Share Posted August 6, 2006 Yeh i choose all the right patches same as before, I cant install any other way (to my knowledge) Because osx cant see my hard drive Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/23598-something-hogging-my-cpu/#findComment-157040 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korrupted Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Another tip: turn off windows file sharing when you don't need it; it is a CPU hog as well.

Leob4u Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 I have the same problem. Kernal_task took about 70% CPU usage and i thought its because of my AMD processor. I have 2 dual AMD opteron 270 processor and in one of my processor kernal_task took about 70%-80%. I was not really happy seeing this happening. I had the windows sharing turn on. So, other than windows sharing is there any other problem that would trigger kernal_cpu to hog the cpu that much.
