    way too many svchost

    recently my pc started to go way slower than it should, like 2 days ago i could run fallout new vegas at 60 fps constant with no problem, but today the fps start to drop below 40 even when just reloading and no enemies on screen or no walking, just re-loading. So i checked my task manager and the only thing i found unusual is there are around 30 of those even after checking with my antivirus and windows for any virus and finding nothing and doing a clean start. Is this normal?
    ty in advance and sorry for my poor english im not a native.

    Welcome to PCHF z-d,

    That is perfectly normal as they are all individual Windows services, which btw should be left well alone.

    If the computer is a desktop can you post the brand and model name or number of the power supply (PSU).

    Download then run Speccy (free) and post the resultant url for us, details here, this will provide us with information about your computer hardware + any software that you have installed that may explain the present issue/s.

    To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:

    In Speccy, click File, and then click Publish Snapshot.

    In the Publish Snapshot dialog box, click Yes to enable Speccy to proceed.

    Speccy publishes the profile and displays a second Publish Snapshot. You can open the URL in your default browser, copy it to the clipboard, or close the dialog box.

      Plus 2 to the above advice, thirty odd svhost.exe instances is not a large number and LEAVE THEM ALONE unless you want to brick your system.
