depending on which version of windows your using it will be slitly different but basicaly ctrl-alt-del which may give you the option of opening windows task manager or just open it, then click processes, then you will be given a list of programs that are background running, there will be a colum labled cpu check to see if any of the programs are using a lot of the cpu and if you can post the name of the program and hopfully we can tell you what to do about it

 

ok have found that thing seams like a lot running

 

Or just scroll to the bottom of the list and look at the System Idle Process. The higher the number the better - for example: My system idle is between 90 & 97 in the CPU column, but that is because I have my CCTV running

 

ok the only thing what has a number in cpu bit is the system idle process which is 97 the onlything i have orunning on the thing is the task master

 

97 is fine, your CPU is not under any strain... only 3% is being used
