The DWM cannot be disabled stating from Windows 8, as it manages the desktop, the desktop background, and the icons on the desktop, as well as the taskbar and the Start Screen / Menu. It is literally a part of Explorer.exe (Backbone of the UI). As far as I know, the DWM doesn't take a lot of CPU in Windows 8 as transparency is not something available in the DWM of Windows 8, only in 7 / Vista.

Thanks, I solved the Issue of my cpu being in use at 99% by adding a 2tb hard disk, and installing windows on it, now I use the other hard drive just for the pagefile, it runs quite better :), plus with my new cooling pad at the bottom of my laptop, it never gets even a little bit hot, thanks a lot for the suggestions. :)
