    cpu usage 100% constant..

    Well, I just wanted to update and say thanks for all the input and taking your time to help me. I fixed it by going into bios for the millionth time and looking under event log for the first time since I've owned this thing. It said "cpu overtemp". I'm sure I failed to give you guys details...

    cpu usage 100% constant..

    No, I don't see any svhost there. Been running process explorer found a couple of things. Under System Idle Process there's Hardware Interrupt, DCPs and System. With most usage going to DCPs and System. When I go into properties for System, I find 2 threads that are pretty active. 1...
