After having just reformatted, and preformed a fresh install of Windows. My Windows CPU usage is incredibly high, between 75-85% idling, and 100% when running anything. I'm suspecting a hardware issue, but I wanted to see if anyone has any idea as to what could be causing this. Task Manager doesn't show that any program is consuming the 80+% of memory being consumed. And ending excess tasks does nothing to change this number.
I had posted previously, where Windows was cuasing my voltages to be off, that is not longer an issue. Other than what I've said, I'm in the dark.
Below is a spec from Belarc Advisor.
Thank you for taking a look at this, and for anything you can suggest.
