RE: CPU Pegged at 100%

oracle.exe spawns out threads, which you will not see running in the task manager.
Each DBWR process then will be a thread of oracle.exe.

     I have 5 DBWR processes according to INIT.ORA on NT .. I see them on V$SESSION but There is only one process ORACLE.EXE in the processes list of NT still.

     I do not understand the behaviour of ORacle on NT neither the Oracle I think.
