Same problem here, did you find any solution ?
not yet
Start cgminer in realtime priority. When setting up your profile in CgWatcher, click the "Advanced" button.
Run CgWatcher in idle priority. Either with task manager, Process Explorer or a batch file with the line @cmd /c "start /idle cgwatcher.exe"
If that doesn't solve, pool cgminer only each 10 seconds or so.
You guys are using single-core Sempron 145 CPUs, aren't you?

I'll give it a try, thanks.
Yes, I'm using a Sempron 145 single core
That's a bad CPU if you want to run more than just cgminer. cgminer is advanced in prefetching work from pool and generating local work and generic multithreading and whatever more, however there's so much it can do on a single-core when it is frequently interrupted by cgwatcher, vnc server, network card interrupts, etc...
Cgwatcher could also be a bit more lightweight, but .net is very convenient...
Realtime priority improves some, but the suggestion you see everywhere of a Sempron 145, when there's a dual-core 190 for more $5, is frankly, pathetic.
I agree, I didn't realized how many things I was going to install and followed naively a guide buying the 145 sempron, although I was not convinced of the choice, but everyone seemed to point towards that CPU...
I regret that decision, I should not trust the "cheap" suggestions and spend a few bucks more
