Ok so here is what this is about.

I stream and it's easier to have a dual monitor to do so. So I've got a dual monitor.
However I can no longer do anything due to crazy cpu usage. ALL the time.

I go to 100% when I open a game which I never have done before.

I was wondering if anyone had an idea why? (Its the game I am running that ends up using 100%) but it never did before? So I'm confused.

Im running
i5 2500k @ 3.3ghz
Gtx 670
8GB Corsair 1600Mhz RAM
2TB HDD
ASUS P8Z77 Motherboard
Any help would be appreciated.

I have read that it should not affect my CPU however it just seemed largely coincidental that I plug in a new monitor and my cpu goes haywire.
I have the process monitor open and SVChost.exe and Trustedinstaller.exe are using 374000 KB each
That isn't normal right?

Its gone

I have just tried to run my pc with the HDMI alone and then the VGA alone
both still give me the same results

I am unable to do a system restore as the point is to where I installed an update. AFTER dual monitors. All previous restores have been wiped...

Trustedinstaller.exe is gone and still I am receiving the same issue.
Somethings on my computer. It has to be but Im not sure what.

Nope I haven't installed anything for ages as I play on a select few games.

The only thing I downloaded was After I realised the 100% cpu usage and that was the drivers for the monitor. Although its a PnP monitor that should be automatically recognized

No the problem has not left.

I have tried both monitors singular. (HDMI and VGA) and the problem persists.
Although from in a game I don't seem to notice any decrease in performance.

I'm having a feeling the effect is purely a placebo from actually being able to see the cpu monitor in a game, as my virus scan has come back clean. No files have been installed so I can't foresee how I would of have gotten anything
