Description
Describe the bug
The CPU load reading are extremely incorrect regardless of the HW_SENSORS settings (AUTO/LHM(since I'm on Windows) give between 3% to the amount in the screenshot, PYTHON gives between 0 and 5%)
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Starting the script
Expected behavior
I expected the readings to be correct, but they show a random amount of load, from 3% to upwards of 1.5k%
Environment:
- Smart screen model: Turing 3.5”
- Revision of this project: 3.5.0,
mainbranch, latest commit - OS with version: Windows 11
- Python version: Python 3.12
- Hardware: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8750H CPU @ 2.20GHz 2.21 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 with Max-Q Design

Research direction
Start by running the script on the reported Windows 11, Python 3.12 environment with HW_SENSORS set to AUTO, LHM, and PYTHON, then compare each reading with the system's expected CPU load. Trace the sensor-reading path to determine where values reach 1.5k% and verify corrected readings across the reported settings.
