I had a Windows 7 Professional and then thought about upgrading to Windows 10 since Windows 7 is coming to end. When I upgraded to Windows 10 i got a random Blue Screen. My PC restarted i opened Task Manager and there it is 100% CPU Usage non-stop. Its really annoying i read the same problem of some guy on this kinda forum, and followed his steps. None of them worked and i'm really annoyed by Windows 10. This never happened on Windows 7 and i'm really hoping there is a way to fix this.

My PC:

CPU: Intel Core i5 2400 3,10GHz

RAM:12GB(4x3)

Graphics Card: Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB GDDR5

HDD:1TB

I found out that System Idle Process is taking too much CPU how can I fix this?

Waiting for help.

    OK, your CPU is running flat out but, as I mentioned before, the cause is something other than the System Idle process. Assuming that you killed Google Chrome before taking this snapshot, it must be some background process that's responsible. I recommend you do this:

    1. Run msconfig.exe.
    2. Click the Services tab.
    3. Tick the box to hide all MS services.
    4. Disable the rest.
    5. Reboot.
    6. Check if the CPU loading remains at 100%.

    It helps mentioning this in your initial post so that respondents can eliminate this potential cause right at the beginning.

    The next steps require direct access to the machine, which I obviously do not have. To see what is involved you should to ask Google like so:

    determine cause of excessive cpu loading

    After solving your problem, please remember to post the solution here for the benefit of other posters with a similar problem.
