I have used these settings for a long time with no problem. This just started a few days ago.
I assumed it was MSE so I disabled the scan and still when I got up the whine was present. Only Calibre executes anything when I go to bed. I have tried to replicate this problem during the day with no luck. I ran MSE full scan and downloaded all my news with Calibre and the CPU was at 100% but could not get the whine to happen.
However this morning I redownloaded all my news from Calibre without MSE running and my CPU shot to 100%.
Any ideas.
Should I revert to an earlier version of Calibre.
Thanks
Calibre conversions can be very intense.
Start the Task manager and switch to 'Processes' and click the CPU column to sort the big numbers to the top.
Now you can see who is sucking up cycles big time
