re: System Idle Process taking 95% of CPU Wednesday, October 2, 2002 at 7:16 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Bob B (2307 messages posted) The system idle process is not the problem - actally, the higher the numbers on it, the better. From Microsoft: System Idle Process - You cannot end this process from Task Manager. This process is a single thread running on each processor, which has the sole task of accounting for processor time when the system isn't processing other threads. In Task Manager, expect this process to account for the majority of processor time.
