Hi and welcome to vue!

Firstly, you want it to be using all your cpu, and this is be expected, you can however change it to a reduced affinity so it uses less cores in your windows task manager, but I dont recommend this.

Secondly you start with a procedural terrain, it ALWAYS maintains a function unless you take it off in the function editor, this is also the standard procedure.  A standard terrain is based on an image, so when you click reset it changes the image to a plain black image, thus the flat terrain.

I reccomend you learn the basics of the software via sites like geekatplay.com or from the many tutorials available from cornucopia3d and other sites.   In relation to the procedural terrain, and the function editor these take a long time to learn but its worth it in the end!
