I looked at the trace and saw that the CPU usage come from Zeroing the RAM (ntoskrnl.exe!MiZeroWorkerPages) before it can be reused again.

Install all updates and the Enterprise Hotfix Rollup (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2775511) and try again. You use a Server 2008 R2 with the Sp1 and without any later updates.

Thanks a lot !
Could you please explain, what do you mean by Zeroing the RAM ?
I tried to look it up but cannot find much information on it. Meanwhile, I will install the Hotfix and will update if things improve.
Kind Regards,
SM

OK, maybe a trace with procmon will tell you why you keep getting the access denied?

@MagicAndre1981
I have installed Enterprise Hotfix Rollup and also one another patch from the link that you have provided.
It still does not seem to solve the problem. CPU Utilization is still the same. If you need another trace then please let me know.

now you need to do "try & error" approach. try to stop some applications until you find the one that allocates new memory so often that the kernel has to zero RAM so often.

Currently I only know that HW acceleration in Chrome causes it.

@MagicAndre1981
Could you please tell me how did you find out that CPU load is coming from 'ntoskrnl.exe!MiZeroWorkerPages' ? I cannot seem to find it in the trace file.
Thanks

Good idea as I'm getting no where. :)
It's really odd as I launch the  Bat file via run as administrator it just flashes up and closes. If I just run it, I get the batch window with the window asking for input.

By using process explorer, I found that thread '132   46.97 1483  ntoskrnl.exe!RtlRemoveEntryHashTable+0x360' is responsible for almost all of the load on the machine. @MagicAndre1981's initial analysis is correct. Some Application is responsible for zeroing the ram.
but There are no applications installed on this machine for me to deinstall and check. We have around 10 other machines with same configuration and same specs. But this problem is only occurring on this machine.
Any hints will be highly appreciated !

The PsShutdown service is marked as an interactive service. However, the system is configured to not allow interactive services. This service may not function properly.

Try:

1 open regedit 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Windows and change NoInteractiveServices from 1 to 0.

See if PsShutdown then works.


P.s Don't forget to backup your registry before making any changes!

Can someone please give me some possibilities for (preferably free) software strategies / techniques to repair archived past files - archived from outlook 2007 clients

I constantly get errors when trying to open some of them - either I get the message that

1. the pst file is corrupted or 

2. the pst file is not recognised as a personal pst file

I have obviously tried the ost / pst repair tools but no luck

The problem happens randomly when I run psexec in an elevated Windows cmd console.

psexec -s "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_75\bin\jstack.exe" 18936 > "thread_dump_%tempdate%.tdump"

Posted: 15 October 2015 at 1:04pm

Hello PSTools experts,

We are using Psexec utility to rum multiple instances of a process on different cores of a windows system.

Recently we have tried to use a 20-processor system which supports hyper-threading (provides up to 40 cores).

It seems that when the affinity setting is higher than 32, the actual affinity value wraps (i.e. setting -a 33 results with core 1 being used, -a34 results with core 2 being used etc...).

Is there any limit on the value which set with the "-a" option ? Can we control the affinity for all 40 cores by Psexec ?

Regards
Nitzan

Have any one an idea?
