    Let's see if we can see whats causing the constant running or high CPU

    Right click on the tool bar located at the bottom of the screen, let task manager open then, click on the small box that says
    Show processes from all users.

    Use the scroll bar and look at what might be causing or using a high amount of CPU.

    From what we've done it doesn't appear to be malware related, not saying it's impossible I just don't see what it is.

    The two biggest things that show on the processes is:

    svchost.exe
    System Idle Process

    They are both around 50 CPU.

    When mine did this, Microsoft was the culprit.

    Have you checked manually for updates in the last couple of days?, do you have your computer set to update automatically?

    These next steps look a little "scary". Before I begin, is there a chance this will mess things up on my computer? I do not have the original Windows disk, it came pre-installed on my computer. I'm a little worried to do these steps....

    If you create a restore point first thats something you can revert back to if something should happen.
    All the tool does is check for system errors and attempts to fix them if anything is found.

    Well, you'll never believe this. My computer is silent again! And all I did was install the 16 Windows updates that just came up on my computer! They weren't there when we first started working on this issue and then on the weekend I got all these updates to do, I did them and poof, super loud computer is so quiet again, I can hardly hear it! Sigh.....sorry for all that work you went through, I guess maybe next time I should wait a month or so to see if updates become available? That's twice now that the updates fixed my loud computer issue.
