That's good then.

Did you check out which processes were using lots of CPU resources? We can determine from there what needs to be done

Well no because you'd lose all your documents, programs, settings etc.

Almost always easier to solve a problem than to just format

Right first of all I can see ur running vista and ur on a Dual core. This problem came across to me everytime I installed vista and I thought all my PC's were dodgy. What I found out is that the first few days your with vista it indexes ur hard drive to make search faster. What I did was I disabled indexing services by right clicking on my C drive and disable "Windows Search" and "Superfetch". Well that solved my problem as I didnt need either of the services. But if you do wanna keep those services, my advice is too endure for a few days and it should go back down to 0% CPU usage during idle.
