System Idle Processes - 90-99% All The Time

[ApM]

Hey, I've noticed that my System Idle Processes are on 90-99% all the time even when I'm not doing anything, I was wondering why's that? Because I was reading up on TweakXP and people have said it affected there gameplay with choppy graphics and I've been having that problem and I was wondering?

Anyone?, Thanks alot. .

Tons of spyware and/or viruses?

I know it runs at what 15,000k ? He means does he need it to be running...I have no idea.

No spyware/virus/malware.

It doesn't really use that much mem usage, but CPU usage is constant at 90-99.

?

It's like this cauze it's 90-99% of the total processes. So like you might be using 15% of your system's total speed, but all 15% of that speed is used to keep the system idle. So of that 15%, 90-99% of that is system idle processes.

Contact me back if you need more.

System idle is just that... the percentage of your system that is not doing anything.

In other words, Idle.
