Hi Richard,
What's your system version? Make sure it is update to latest version build through Windows Update feature.
Try to run command line "sfc /scannow" to fix corrupted system files.
Try to close all third party software and disable antivirus software to check CPU usage.
Try to boot into
Clean Boot and Safe Mode to check CPU usage.
