I am having the problem of windows vista taking up 51% CPU all the time once
it startups

The Process that is hogging up the cpu is explorer.exe

I tried to look further into it using Process Explorer and it showed
SHLWAPI.dll!Ordinal629+0x161

Did a Stack for this thread and this is what it shows:

I tried creating a new user acct and deleting the old one.. It does work for
a while but the problem will come back after a few reboot or installation of
files. Anyone has the same problem or a solution to it?
 
You need to install symbols for, at least, the Operating System components.
A stack trace without reliable symbol information is not helpful. Configure
Process Explorer to download symbols from the MS symbol server and
investigate again. (Check Process Explorer documentation to learn how to do
this.)

Anyway, an Internet search shows that the DLL DpoFeedb.dll is installed by
the following program: C:\Program Files\DigitalPersona. Have you tried to
uninstall it temporarily? Do you have a fingerprint reader?
