CPU spikes

On my PC ( P4, Win XP) I pressed CTRL+ALT+DEL to see what happening with things. With no programs open, the CPU graph pretty much just sits at 0-1%. But I see these little CPU spikes on the graph every so often that shoot up to 73% .

Is this something I need to address or normal behavior?

Do those little spikes effect CPU usage of DAWs? I mean, if you're half way to using max CPU would one of those spikes cause it to hit maximum? Or are they just so brief that they really don't matter?


Yeh.....I know......I've got too much time on my hands to be curious about little stuff like this.........
