See
http://www.microsoft.com/communities...xp=&sloc=en-us for more details of original issue. I'm still noticing the above problem. I connect my blackjack and then WmdHost.exe sucks up ALL available memory (and we are talking over 2GBS) takes the system to a complete HALT then sometimes 20 minutes other times hours it finally comes back. No other process seems to be running its all WmdHost. Anyone else experinecing this? I am working from an updated Vista machine with Office 2007 installed. THanks, Ken -- Ken Beard MCSD, MCP |

Yeah you could say that. Nothing else soaks up all the available memory
EXCEPT WmdHost.exe and ONLY right after I plug the phone in to sync. Crazy. But very odd I'm the only one seeing this happen or at least that is how it seems.

THanks, Ken Vista is DESIGNED to use all of your available RAM for its own purposes. It is NOT designed to freeze your machine forever!!! MS thinks unused RAM is wasted money, use it and use it wisely and your pc will be faster. Obviously your machine is not doing that. |

But very odd I'm the only one seeing this happen or at least that is how it seems. You are not alone since I too am experiencing this problem which is very annoying. I am using a Windows Mobile phone (XV6900) running 6.1. I just reinstalled Vista and now when I have my phone plugged in it will keep the cpu at ~65% even after the sync has finished. The only way to stop it is in the processes. I have tried WMDC 6.0 then update to 6.1, uninstall it all and install 6.1 and nothing seems to help. -- RoBac0 Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com |
