ahh, forgot to put the specs
2800+ Sempron with 1Gig of ram; I had to install some drivers that wren't vista ready so that might have something to do with the cpu spiking from time to time but i don't know.

in any case, when i put in the drive(2GB sandisk cruzer) my cpu goes up and somtimes it'll stay at 100%. If i'm not doing anything it's around %30 for the system process. once i take it out, goes back down.
My boss gave me this drive a few days ago so i haven't had time to play with it yet. I'm going to try killing everything on the drive but i was wondering if anyone faced something like this before
