  1. Just got a new gaming PC and my disk usage is a lot of the time at 100%.


    For hours I have been trying to fix this issue, but nothing has worked for me. I have disabled superfetch and windows search and updated all of my drivers. This is getting really frustrating because I've been waiting so long just to get this computer and it just does not work properly. I can't even play games without the disk usage going up to 100% instantly and lagging so badly! It's like simple programs make the disk usage go to 100%? I also updated my windows 10 version. This never happened to my last PC and it's over 4 years old. Btw it's a Dell Inspiron 5676.

  3. 100% usage on disk


    2 days ago i downloaded a new game Playerunknow's battleground and noticed i was lagging really bad. I opened my task manager and my disk usage was at 100%. I closed everything and noticed my pc was doing things slow. My disk usage stays at 100% now and I do not know what to do. I ran some test and disabled some services that an article online suggested that helped others but does not seem to work for me. I was wondering if it is a good idea to uninstall all my drivers and download new ones. Please help me i really dont know what to do
