Upgraded my Macbook (only bought about 3 months ago) to Leopard last weekend and have some annoying/worrying issues since. This is my first Mac, so apologies if some of these problems have obvious fixes!
The problem is that now, whenever I restart a process called System Events is using up 60% of the CPU and something called coreservicesd is using up around another 40% - this causes the temperature to soar (was never a problem before) and the fans to constantly be on over 6000rpm (which is annoyingly noisy).
I'm concerned that this can't be good for it. I can force System Events to quit and that sometimes help, sometimes not (but I know I shouldn't be doing that anyway!).
Any advice? Have a Time Machine backup so am prepared to reformat and install from scratch again if that would help?
