well my CPU usage is about 56% and never goes down.

I have 4 years old computer with Window Vista Premium and my CPU usage is
about 56% and never goes down. I'm trying to troubleshoot right now, it might
be a software that is causing it or a bios update is really needed. I will
provide more information in here if i find a way to fix this CPU thingy.
