How do I do that?

Sorry for the delay, but after trying all the software, nothing worked and I was kinda tired of installing all these things. I ended up formatting my C drive. Just had the trouble of having to re-install evrything, but now it's all fine! Ready for water cooling and OK soon! Thanks a lot guys! Dan

I'll give it a try for sure!

I've tryied all the programs epicdude sent me and none of them worked... I dont know if that's related, but I ONLY use google chrome as a browser and there are no tool bars or add-ons on it... I'll try the CCleaner! Thanks Dan BTW: I've added a new screenshot on my first post showing wich process I need to suspend in order for my CPU usage to get back to 2-3%

What do you mean by turning off background processes? Like blocking WMI Provider Host? Tryied it and programs didn't opened anymore, but CPU usage was back to 2-3% at idle. I'll try these programs, thanks, appreciate it!

Hi guys, for a couple of months, my CPU is running very high (45 to 65% at idle). The process using all the CPU is WMI Provider Host. I've already tried following a couple of tutorials online including a windows re-install and nothing worked. This is very frustrating because that when I'm using more CPU (ex: playing BF4), the CPU spikes to 98-100% which lags the game and sometimes even crashes it. Could someone possibly help me? Thanks a lot guys!
