There is a program called AlacrityPC that you can use to turn services off and
on when you run PSDR. It creats a script to run from. This is basically a try

On my XP Home with SP3 I turned the following off:

The
strange thing is that sometimes a mild spike (showing yellow in the
DPC Latency Checker) will stop PowerSDR, while the latter will keep
going despite a more severe spike (red).
Remember: The problem only occurs when the device you're depending on
has a DPC request that queued behind
PowerSDR often just freezes. Pressing Stop then Start again works. Today
I left the Flex5000 utility running with the DPC checker displayed. Most
of the time the latency reading is approx. 160-180uS, but then comes a
huge spike and PowerSDR freezes. The DPC checker is currently showing a
max.

Alan,
I've found wireless network cards to be major contributors to long
DPC's. If you're using one, try disabling it to see if it makes a
difference. Even non-wireless LAN cards can be a problem so you may want
to try disabling all network adapters to see if that solves the problem.
If it
Al,
You might want to check out the Knowledge Center note and the PDF from
Thesyscon, giving some hints as to where the issue might be.. I bet you
may find a program that is going out over the Internet for updates and

Alan,
First off CPU utilization is a poor metric to use when debugging
DPCs. Your culprit is probably either the UPS-monitoring utility
and/or the CA Internet Security suite issuing a call to make some
component hardware do something.

I second that... Windows search is a prime offender on Vista as well.
Why it affects DPC latency I don't know, but it certainly seems to.
