I just found out that my Cubase SX3(with nothing opened, no project, no nothing) uses 100% of CPU power (according to Windows Task manager), is that possible? Reason v3.0 uses only 1%.. What is more important to Cubase, CPU or RAM? What is recomended CPU and RAM values? What to upgrade first CPU or RAM? I have Intel 1.8 GHz with 256 Mb RAM and 250 Gb hard disk, but Im only using 40 Gb hard for now and its almost 2/3 full, I defragment it but maybe thats the problem.. Or sound card drivers.. I recently installed Sound Blaster Live! and according to specifications I should have no problem.. Is it better to plug synth onto Sound blaster game port or into MPU-401 on my system board? What is lowest latency for Sound blaster Live!?

Copy.. I hate stupid dongle protection..
I set virtual paging file to min. 512 max. 1024, but nothing changes.. Well actually I can open whole MIDI song and add 4 decent VSTs and let my synth play by some MIDI channel/pattern and play at the same time but that is almost overload, I have to tweak it good to achieve that.. When it comes to playing with synth I messed with asio drivers and after one day of tweaking I got 20-40 ms input latency and about 150-200 output.. And we can say I can play on synth with that latency but anything above 40 ms is bad, I have to wait a second when I remove the finger from the keyboard to hear the sound.. But I think that SB Live! should have much lesser latency, should it?
So first thing to do is to buy more RAM?

yeah I now it svcf***inhost. Oh man, I warned all off u and u should post everything u knew about that svc in "warning infected vst" topic.. But no man, I have collection of 303 VSTs, I cant loose that.. Man Im pissed now..
But is there an option like this: I could burn all my VSTs, in fact I already did, format, reinstall everthing and then install only main VST that i need, I mean the big ones like z3ta and vanguard which I dont think they are infected..

lmao dudes reinstall your system because of a trojan/virus whatever? sorry to be a smartass but it's very easy to clean your system!
there are several tutorials how to clean your svchost services. A good starting point is a proper task manager like the one from sysinternals that will show what actually is running:
www.sysinternals.com
-process explorer (free)
now search the microsoft database how to edit your registry. unuseful entries are gone in minutes if you do it properly.
from the same site, sysinternals, grab the free prog regmon, it will show what's getting added to your registry in realtime while installing software.
