Best Answer

When the System Idle Process is running at a high percentage, it means that your computer isn't doing anything that requires much use of the CPU at that time. For example, if you are using 5% of your CPU, the System Idle Process will be using 95% of the CPU, which means that 95% of the CPU is not being used.
