System & System Interrupt kept 15~30% CPU usage in Idle all the time in Surface Pro 3

The title says it all. These service named System & System Interrupt kept utilizing 15~30% of my CPU most of the time even on idle. This caused some temp rise on my Surface Pro 3 at 54C~61C (on idle) which used to be 45C~54C (idle) Also Battery seems to drain faster than b4.

Did you face these issue or do you have any idea what had just happened~!? :eck:

Note: Have all the latest updates!

Hi,

i do have the same issue with my surface pro 3, around 25/30 % cpu most of them from the interrupt system even when it is idle.

The problem occurs on windows 10, obviously under windows 8, eberything is ok.

I have found no solutions so far.

Regards

It has worked for most people. Occasionally the problem comes back, but if I restart my SP3, it's fine. Though I haven't experienced it for quite awhile now, and I'm consistently monitoring Task Manager. Try it out.

I can add that the HP Stream 8 with Win10 behaves the same way with System and System Interrupt in the range of 20-30% when the tablet is idling. With 8.1 this wasn't a problem.

I suspect other devices will have similar problems. Seems to be a systemic Win10 problem rather than just a SP3 one.
