Computer Hope

My CPU is running at 100% all of the time as a result of svchost.exe. I'm trying to find out what processes are running and which is causing the problem. I'm running XP Home Edition, so I've downloaded tasklist.exe, however, when I run it the screen flashes up for a second and then disappears.
I'm not sure exactly what my next step is once I have the PID, but that will be my next problem in finding the culprit that's bogging down my computer.
I'm pretty confident that my computer is virus-free as it's scanned regularly. Any suggestions on how I can see the tasklist and what to do next?

lakeswimmer,
A program you may want to look into called Process Scanner.
I have it posted here:

I hope you find it useful. It has been for me.
Look forward to your comments about it...
