woot another problem...now task manager has high cpu usage but wtf no process using any power????
system idle at 99 :\
in the screen shot(shit some permission error when uploading it????) usage is just 10% but it goes beyond 50 with system idle at 99....i did not wanted to wait but for it to go high and then take screenshot but it really goes that high.....the error when uploading it: Could not upload attachment to ./files/477_cb6cac737d3c9d67a34f2d7453398fc9.

Re: High cpu usage but no process using power....
.. system idle means that 99% is available, noob. when taking screenshot, it uses overlay most likely, which takes a lot of cpu. like fraps..etc. you need to sort out your system, what os you using ? xp or vista, because vista always uses lot of cpu, however system idle means that xx% is free, not used.
thx for reporting the problem, should be fixed now.

Re: High cpu usage but no process using power....
i know that!!!!
thats wat i said....system is 99% idle but cpu usage is 50%
try to understand wat i m saying.....no process is using ant power still usage is more....i use xp and i know vista uses more.....see the screenshot

Re: High cpu usage but no process using power....
didnt got the point, i tought you refer to system idle. on screenshot it says 17% and it pops sometimes, it isnt real usage.
dont use this shit task manager, get process explorer, get rid of zonealarm ultimate, or whatever it is, it eats memory. you dont need virtual browsing.
also chrome is shit, look how much memory it takes, memory means cpu too. cpu needs to write/read it into/from ram, this is what eats your cpu. system idle might be 99, but its temporary, it doesnt change so fast probably. you need to test, not using programs, but real performance and see the temp, if its high or not, if its low, then it means it really i in idle.

Re: High cpu usage but no process using power....
well here r answers: it not pops sometimes,it goes high and even above 50% even though system idle at 90-99
about process explorer....it says that some interrupts process is eating all power....well zonealarm ultimate(extreme security :P) removed it long time back now i use internet security suite.....temp is about 56C right now of cpu so it means its really doing something.....

Re: High cpu usage but no process using power....
after 2 days and night of scraching head i found solution.....its nothing but a driver issue that can affect any os....i m posting solution so if some1 gets problem then he dont hav to scratch his head....to confirm that its the same case as mine had ,first download process explorer from microsoft and see if there is a process called "interrupts" using the hidden power.....if yes continue to solution:
start > right click on "my computer" > properties > hardware > device manager
then double click on IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers
and then right click then properties for "primary IDE channel" and also for "secondary IDE channel" then on advanced settings it must b saying current transfer mode as PIO and if yes then this is the problem.....go back and uninstall this device(both primary and secondary even if it says PIO for only 1 of them) restart windows and it will install then back when u restart.....after installation restart again and your pc will b back to normal....well its usage must b back already when u uninstall it but its important to restart as every1 knows......in topic name add "solution" "fix" or something like that so that when some1 searches for it then gets it easily.....many people seems to hav this problem....Good Luck

Re: High cpu usage but no process using power - error and fi
never had anything like this before, right now i cant bother to take a deeper look into it. also 56C is not so bad, considering that it is summer. mine idles like 26 - 50C, depending on the weather. and mine is dual core 2.8ghz
Re: High cpu usage but no process using power - error and fi
my cpu is also dual-core but 2.51 ghz and its really hot at my place....during night when i play games temp dont go beyond 50 and when idle its just 30-45.....this is also something new issue to me....never heard of this before from any1 but many people seems to hav problem with it on google.....
