    my old laptop suffered from high cpu usage and it was OLD and tired. Santa treated himself to a new one. I let it configure it's self according to the instructions   I then downloaded Maxthon cloud and promptly added wgt as a favourite. CAN'T PLAY the GAME NOW !! the meter is jerky as hell the picture is jerky as well. I haven't seen the cpu meter dip below 30 yet (maxthon)

    I know that I am starving you for information as computer is not my lingo  It's an HP with windows 8 

    the only info I have is 4GB ram 500GB hard drive and something AMD E1

    did I do or not do something wrong

    thanks in advance for your help !!

    It could be due to the processors . I have a Dell lap top 4 GB Ram 500GB hard drive AMD A6 Quad Core processors windows 8 . Its sweet and gives me no problems . Try  Advanced System Care , it comes with a turbo boost which will let you turn off many programs with the click of a button , so you wont need to go into the task manager . You can get it from Cnet for free . Also try Commodo Dragon as it works great also . But if you try comodo download the flash seperate from the browser so you get the latest version .

    Anyway the processor that you have is an older version and not as good as the AMD 6 . The one I have I got it from K Mart for $375.36 it was on sale and still may be since I bought mine back in October . But make sure that you put in all of the windows updates that are important , You can skip the optionals and see if that works . Hope this helps . :-)

    Before deleting apps, use your Task Manager to see what is using the CPU. Some items can be killed and disabled at startup. As long as the apps are not running they should not affect the CPU.

    Also I am not sure what virus software you use - it is possible it is running a scan in the background (as could updates).

    I also use an HP with Win 8 - it took some time to optimise it for this game, but runs smooth now using Maxthon Cloud and 16.0.0.235 Flash.

    I really know nothing about computers but had similar symptoms on mine, turned out I had two flash versions enabled and after disabling one (the pepper one) all was fine.  May be worth a quick look.

    If you plan to never use them then delete them from programs and features in control panel, if your not sure just disable them from the start up.

    right click on WGT play button click on global settings then click advanced tab at the top, active x version should be 16.0.0.235 and NPAPI plug-in version should be the same PPAPI should be not installed

    also get adblock plus through your browsers add extensions.

    By the way, if you did download updates from Java or Adobe you should have made sure to uncheck the check marks prompting you to install the ask and google tool bars. If you did not then go to programs and features and remove the ask and google tool bars. Also check your browsers extensions and disable or remove them also. Tool bars of any kind are not necessary, if you want to search for something just google it.

    ......also don't use the Maxthon Cloud ---delete that and get the older version THAT IS NOT the cloud one and try that one.
