The higher system idel process is, the better. Think of it like this, System Idle process represents the % of your CPU available to request. so 94% idle means only 6% of your cpu is being used at the moment.
With no mouse movement, my idle is 97-99%

yeah...the processor percentages have to add up to 100%...system idle just takes up the balance. On this old PC, system idle takes up 93% with task manager itself taking up another 5%, leaving 2% for background stuff.

this thread discusses the problem that you seem to be having (if you are using windows xp)http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/showthr...threadid=44457

If you aren't using winxp then you need to give us some more info about your pc
