munim Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 I've searched the forums but nobody else seems to be having this problem. What is this task associated with and why would it use the cpu to such extent? It bogs down the computer and when I force quit it, it returns after a while. Setup as follows: Dell inspiron e1406/640m core2duo t5600 intel 945 chipset sata hd sigmatel sound (haven't configured this to work just yet) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/45749-screenreaderd-utilizing-almost-100-cpu/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
GivemHell Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 screenreaderd is linked to the VoiceOver Utility. Disable it from Preference Panel-->Speech-->Open Universal Access Preferences-->Seeing-->VoiceOver OFF. Found this while searching for why screenreaderd would repeatedly crash in my Activity Monitor.
