Best Buy Repair Support

[NateG4902]

Geek Squad took my computer in for repairs, told me it would be $150, charged $200, then another $100 to upgrade my hard drive to an ssd. After all this, the original problem of extremely high cpu usage on idle never got fixed, and now I need to either send it in again, or just give up. Now that I'm angry enough to go to a dead forum with no saving grace, a bot is probably going to say sorry blah blah blah we know you love your laptop blah blah blah contact us here at blah blah blah.

This forum doesn’t use bots, but the moderators will ask for your details via private message so they can look into your situation. It may take a few days, they work on a first come first serve basis. I’m not quite sure why you mentioned this forum as being dead, it’s quite active and there are people who are ahead of you which will slow their reply.

What is running in task manager that is using the CPU at idle?
