    Clock Speed Very High 100% Usage


    Hello, I have an older Desktop I built years ago. I haven't turned it on for years and finally fired it up and got thru all of the updates. I noticed it was slow, and saw that the cpu usage was 100% and the clock speed was all wacky (please see attahced pictures). I went thru and manually updated all drivers in device manager under system devices. I tracked down the latest BIOS version from 2011 and updated it, and used Intel's auto update to discover any chipset updates which returned nothing. Kind of stumped at this point. Let me know what you all think, thank you for the help.

    I have attached a screenshot of the taskmanager (keep in mind numbers are going up and down but saying at that number of digits) along with my system information.

    :)

    slow internet speed through ethernet(high speed internet connection), and disk usage as high as 100 percent

    i have an ethernet connection for using internet. i have 2 windows 10 , version 1607 laptops. When i plug the ethernet cable in one laptop, i can use internet at the speed promised by my service provider(2mbps). I have checked this speed in task manager.

    but when i plug in the same ethernet cable in other laptop, internet speed in task manager shows very little speed near about 50 kbps. and this too doesnt remain constant. the speed varies very rapidly between 0-100 kbps. suppose first i saw 20kbps, then
    in next second it goes as high as 100 kbps..and then in the next second it shows 0kbps..remains 0kbps for a few seconds, and then again speed picks up for a few seconds.

    One more key observation, whenever internet speed grows, my disk usage grows as high as 100 percent. And then internet speed slows down.

    Whenever i connect this laptop(the one i am using ) to internet either through ethernet/wifi...even with higher speed connection, though i get a bit higher speed, but i have observed a lot of fluctuations in speed in task-manager, performance tab, the graph
    rarely stays straight(constant), it just forms a triangular shape, it as if a connection loss is taking place every 4-5 seconds.

    A month ago, this PC was working well.

    <snip>

    In the Task Manager, under Performance tab, the disk utilization reaches to 100% due to which system became lagging and unresponsive. It started freezing in few moments and this keeps happening until disk usage reduces from 100%.

    Control panel > Power Options > Edit Plan Settings > Change Advanced Power Settings > Processor Power Management > Maximum Processor state.

    Also, once I start Chrome 64, it uses lots of cpu and ram to do absolutely nothing.

    Clock Speed Very High 100% Usage

    100 % disk usage in windows 8.1

    i have windows 8.1 and i am having the issue that whenever i turn on my laptop (Wndows 8.1 HP Pavillion core i7 8 GB RAM) and see the disk usage from task manager it slowly creeps in steps to 100% disk usage. The laptop gets slow, the fans starts at a
    high speed and the laptop heats up. furthermore it also gets slow. what is an authentic and permanent fix for the problem.
