what is viewing system information?

Question

When ever I open my office clipboard it shows 2 of 24 and it continually try's to fill itself. this causes the cpu to operate at 100% and the system all but siezes up.On rare occasions that I've been able to clear it out things work fine for a few minutes but then for no reason it just fills up again . Usually when it fills its with an image of the entire desktop ? i've gone to windows system32 file and opened the clipboard and I get a continual flashing of that image like its trying to display it over and over again. as result everything once again freezes.

Can you tell me how to stop this ?

Thankyou for your time
