ENVY x360 15m-dr1012dx
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Even with all apps closed, CPU runs at 30-40%, and is consuming over 60% of memory (12GB).  In Task Manager, the "System" process is using almost all that CPU, and shows power usage as Very High.   If I reboot, the problem will go away, but invariably comes back, even if I just reboot the system and leave it alone.    Everything is up to date, including windows update and HP Support Assistant.  I already had to replace the fan once on this unit, and with two months left under warranty, would like to get this thing running right before it expires.

 

Thanks,

 

Jim
