Simple question. Maybe not a simple answer.
"Why is my System Idle Process hogging my CPU *even when* I'm trying to use demanding programs?"
It started yesterday. I've tried rebooting to no avail. I also can't think of anything significant I've done to my software setup the last few days.
As I understand it, the System Idle Process is putting part of my CPU 'to sleep' so save power. The problem is- when I run a game, it keeps doing it, and I end up with 10 FPS.
