I'm not clear what you are saying you are experiencing. Are you saying Rainmeter itself is using 97% of your CPU, or that something is using 97% of your CPU, which you are aware of because of a Rainmeter skin displaying the CPU usage? What are you saying? Be specific.
In any case, I would certainly start by using Task Manager and sort by CPU to see if you can spot what process is using a lot of CPU. You can also open the "Performance" tab and click on the "Performance Monitor" link at the bottom for more info.
The only clue I have heard at all so far is that it seems to only happen "when I'm not using my computer.". That would seem to point to some background task, perhaps a Windows task, or some other program, that is designed to operate when it detects a period of time with no user interaction. I'd start looking there, but in any case, unless I misunderstand what you are saying, this doesn't sound like it has anything to do with Rainmeter.

Re: CPU
Ok. You need to start unloading skins until you find the one that is causing it. Then we can look at just that one.Gregory2001 wrote:The Task Manager is showing Rainmeter @ 97%
