I noticed my laptop was being a bit unresponsive so I checked the processes tab and found that System Idle Process is using nearly all of my CPU power.

Why is this happening and how do I stop it?

The system idle process indicates the time the system is idle. It's not using your CPU power but indicating that it's not used.
