    You can also get CUP usage using PDH counters. MSDN describes how to use PDH.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks

    The wmi interface provides access to all the performance counters.

    A search on the microsoft web site will provide lots of doc as well as sample c++ code.

    On win2k and XP the processor object might be disabled.
    Enable it by modifying the registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHIN\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\PerfOS\Performance. Set "Disable Performance Counters" to 0.
