Merge why is my new computer howling? If you copied it to C: and the disk is not in the CD drive I would say it is the case fan. Pentium 3 is pretty old technology and I believe the fastest on was 1.26 Ghz with 512k L2 cache which is pretty light for gaming. That would explain the 70% cpu usage. Are you sure it is not a Pentium 4 or Pentium M because you said it is a new laptop I did not think they were using Pentium 3 any more.
