I'm new user who transitioned from Windows and I have this nasty problem
since I installed Ubuntu 18.10 on my HP ProBook 450 with I3-6100 with 2 core and 4 threads my CPU 1 is around 100% and CPU 2,3,4 are <10%. My laptop is overheating and fan is always on…
Unfortunately haven't found anyone with this kind of problem.
This is Htop picture of no programs running:
I've seen people suggest running update and upgrade, but haven't helped me.
As far as I checked all drivers are up to date.

.Update #1:
To solve the current boot problem...
If you have ANY problems with this procedure, contact me immediately.
at the GRUB menu...
hit the e key to enter edit mode
using the arrow keys, find "quiet splash pnpacpi=off" and change it to "quiet splash"
hit the control+x, or F10 key to continue to boot
once booted, repeat Step #2 in my answer, and change "quiet splash pnpacpi=off" back to just "quiet splash", and do the follow-on commands
you should be able to reboot normally
Update #2:
