I'm just wondering what everyone else has as its priority. Because currently it's running on high and eating up nearly half the cpu power at idle. Thats way above normal.

I'm not quite sure what did it, but only happened a few hours ago as everything slowed right down.

I'm doing a virus cheack to make sure, but a bit of comparison could solve my problem.

Maybe windows updates screwed it up or something?

Turned on today to find it's back to normal.

The only thing I can think of would be overheating, though why it effected one windows process I'll never know.
