I have a older gaming computer I am working on for a friend. It has a Fatal1ty P67 Pro mother board with a i7 processor. The problem is when I boot the system up normally to windows 10 the CPU is always at 100 % usage, never drops and eventually crashes. The HDD and memory are always at low percentages. Ig I start in safe mode the the CPU is where it should be. I have tried 2 separate clean installs of Windows 10, I have updated drivers, I have disabled some drivers, I did a clean boot and unchecked all non Microsoft programs at startup, I have checked the memory, I tried a different video card, I removed heat sink and applied fresh thermal paste, ran file checker and still the same results. This is a gaming laptop so I reset the bios and tried to put all setting to default. The CPU temp is usually under 40.
The only things I have not checked is the CPU and motherboard.
Any suggestion would be appreciated
