CPU 100% in every game

I mostly play NFS World on my laptop, after very few minutes of gameplay for some reason my CPU stays at 100% all the time until I exit the game and because of that I get very bad performance. Is there anything that stop this from happening? (I am not running anything at the background)

Try lowering settings like resolution,anti aliasing and shadows ,reflections ect. What ever settings the game has,I know nfs most wanted had some settings like that.

I have everything on the lowest settings, like I said I start the game and I have some good fps but once my CPU reaches 100% my fps can drop to 15fps or even less.

What process uses your cpu most ? game ?

Almost sounds like it could be thermal throttling due to overheating. Have you checked to make sure the cooling vents/fans are open and not full of dust?

The game uses a lot of memory from what I see. (the pictures that I attached aren't from today but you can see the results)

Yes, they are clean.

There is another process right there taking up a lot of CPU processing though.
