Kernel hogging CPU on Tiger.

Hi,

I'm sure that you have come across this problem before. It seems that a lot of users suffer the same problem, but I cannot see any answers that solve it.

I am running Mac OS 10.4.11 and the kernel suddenly hogs between 40 to over 100% of the CPU. I reboot many times to try to clear it, I have run applejack 2 and 3 times in succession, but nothing clears it. I did an 'archive and install' last week which cleared it for a few days, but now it's happening again. Do you have any ideas?

Many thanks in anticipation.

Alan Stockton.
