I check on my system Task Manager--> performance and the CPU usage always 100%.. is it a good sign or bad sign...

That's usually not a good thing. Check the Processes tab and see which one is using 100%.

Hi c-learner,

Are you running something like Asus Probe? Some versions of Probe will show 100% usage, as well as some other simular temp monitors and the like.
