[ANSWERED] Windows Host Process Rundll32 high CPU Usage

Recently whenever I try to open SAMP or run any .dll file, I notice that my laptop starts heating up and fan starts making noise. After several days I noticed that there is a file called Rundll32 that starts working once I open SAMP that takes like 70% or even more of the UCP. Any ways to stop that from happening?

Since you are using Windows 7, It's possible that the rundll32 is coming from GameUX.

Try remove it from \Windows\System32\GameUX.dll & \Windows\SysWOW64\GameUX.dll

You can also try alternative way which is 'end process' from task manager while running your games.
