CREO increasing power comsumption of Windows "SYSTEM" process.

Dear community.

I have an issue with a high of energy comsumption by SYSTEM proces after CREO is running.

After the CREO is not in use, the SYSTEM proces works properly.

Does any one meet similar issue?

Any solution?

I'm using CREO 7 + Wind chill on Win10.

Thanks in advance.

Hello.

This anomaly is consuming a lot of battery power (fast battery draining).

In addition the PC is much warmer that usually.

I have also comparison with similar PC of my colegues - issue does not occure.

It is occuring since a few weeks.

Hi,

it looks like the problem is related to graphic card.

1.]

You can add graphics win32_gdi option at the end of config.pro file temporarily. This option turns OPENGL graphics off. Therefore the problem should disappear. The option is only used to test the problem, it is not intended for normal operation.

2.]

If the problem persists for several weeks, then graphic card driver may have been automatically updated. Roll back older driver.
