[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1547607, member: 56379"] This is not good. If you have cpu activity in the 85-95% range right after rebooting the computer (AND you have not launched any applications) then: - there may be applications that are "auto-launching" on startup/reboot...that are eating up all the cpu resources. - it is possible to have a hardware problem (something has failed or not working correctly) One thing to do (right after rebooting): - open Activity Monitor - check cpu usage - if it is high (higher than say 5-10%) - select "All Process's" (upper right of Activity Monitor window) - look over the list of process's...and try to see what is using all the cpu resources If Activity Monitor (All Process's)...doesn't show anything...then you might have a hardware problem. - Nick p.s FYI...Activity Monitor on my computer (as I'm typing this message) with 4 apps. open...is using about 9% cpu.
