Doesn't Say, the computer itself is white on outside black in inside
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,

 

   I got a new computer from Best Buy about two weeks ago. I have noticed lately whenever I turn it on after being on sleep mode the fan gets very loud and then the noise subsides. Today after turning it on it did the same thing. However, now when I plug it in to charge it the noise gets loud nonstop. I looked at task manager and it seems whenever I turn it on/plug it in, a task named SysInfoCap gets the CPU to about 33 percent and does this almost singlehandly. Does anybody else have this problem?
