nforce drivers and CPU consumming

I'm not sure if this ng is the adapted place for talking about nforce
chipset, if it's not, thanks for giving me the right place, if it's
possible, my problem is following

Hello,

I've got a problem of CPU consuming on my nforce based computer (MSI
mother board) under win2K SP4 : When I install windows (a complete new
install) and then when I install the nforce drivers (2.03, 2.45 or 3.13)
I've got a big incraese of constant CPU consumming which never comes
back under 60% (according to the task manager monitor) with 99% of
CPU usage for idle process.
before installing the drivers the task manager monitor stays near zero.

does anybody see the point and know about this problem ?

thanks in advance

99% for idle process is correct. Nothing wrong with that. Did you say yes
to the SW IDE dirver install?
