CPU Usage 100% Games in Background

Posted: 01-28-2007, 09:15 PM
I have encountered a strange behaviour. If I run a game (tested with Guild
Wars & Unreal Tournament 2004) and switch back to the desktop, the game
produces 100% cpu usage (in reality 50% because i have a dualcore cpu). Even
if i am in the game, the cpu usage is not so high. I also cant reproduce
this on XP so this must be a Vista problem.

My system:

Asus A8N-E Nforce 4
2GB Ram
6600 gt


Have anyone else experienced this behaviour or has a solution or clue for
that?
