Hmm strange. Check your virtual memory settings and make sure your settings are set to default (for debugging your problem). Next find out what applications are using CPU from a cold boot, load up nothing and wait till your HDD LED stops flashing. Press Ctrl + Alt + Del adn watch which services are using the CPU and/or memory.
Programs such as kazaa 2.5 are known to come with a lod of un-needed system processes that need not be running until you use the application. Kazaa 2.5 is reported to use around 64MB or RAM with all it's servicies inclusing P2P service, Application, 3rd party junk. Anyway, back to the point check for programs using high memory. no programs should really be using CPU from a cold boot unless you have a boot up virus checker.
