Manager tasks shows the use of the drive high above 95%

Just updated to windows 8 Windows 7, my task manager indicates high disk usage.

I have 150 GB of disk space

4 GB of ram

Intel Core i5 2520 M CPU @ 2.50 GHZ

Please advice

Hello

See the http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-performance/windows-8-keeps-slows-down-to-100-disk-usage-and/cd787f8d-e7b4-4872-aecb-6f0cd15ad942 post

Towards the end, there are a few messages by Jeremy on how this can be resolved by cloning the drive HARD, formatting and recloning. I also have this problem on windows 8 / 8.1 machine for more than a year, but haven't tried the solution suggested by Jeremy again. I tried several other tricks.

At least two or three people have confirmed that it works

  • Manager tasks shows the incorrect processor frequency after overclocking

    I overclocked my CPU ([email protected]) from 1.6 Ghz to 2.6 Ghz, but the Windows 8 Task Manager does not display the correct frequency, still clocked at 1.6 Ghz. This is why it cannot reflect the actual speed of the CPU.

    Is this a bug?

  • In disk management, I checked the drive to shrink the process after that he had finished he told me that there is space for shrinkage of 9 GB!

    Hi all

    I only have one disc space (C) with 1 TB space, the free volume of that disk is about 330 GB, I want to reduce it to create the new volume. In disk management, I checked the drive to shrink the process after that he had finished he told me that there is space for shrinkage of 9 GB!
    Can someone help!

    Original title: Shrink Volume

    The common cause for limited space retractable is the Table of master files (MFT). It is essentially a system file good behaviour that even Windows own Defrag tool will not move.

  • Problems to show the driver IVI and property loader error messages when you use a type of operator interface

    I use UI operator (programmed in ICB, with asynchronous timer) in the folder OP1 in attached zip file. This operator interface does not have the error message from the driver of the IVI, properts, charger etc. on the screen (messages as in the photo attached error.jpg in zip file attached). Due to stability problems, I use this operator interface, but I need these error message. One other operator interface is OP2 in attached zip file. This operator interface puts the error message from the driver of the IVI, charger properts... on the screen (messages as in the photo attached error.jpg in zip file attached). Now, I want to have this feature with OP1 for reasons of stability I use OP1. How can I implement this in OP1? I tried and tried a lot of time, but I have not found a method to implement this. can someone help me? Thank you kind regards Samuel

    Hello, Johann,.

    I'm not sure you understood my problem. My problems are not the IVI and loader drivers error messages property! But my problem is, that errors of the IVI drivers and property loader operator interface does not bring on the screen. So to test this situation, cause an error of the driver of the IVI or shipper of property, then you can see that with a PC, you have an error message and with another IO no error message takes place and the test of stocks without a message. Do you know why this OI does not show the error messages and how showing the error message can be implemented in this operator interface

  • Manager tasks shows only 4 graphics on the performance tab when it should display 8 for 3770 K & Win7 x 64

    When I open the performance tab of Task Manager I see that 4 graphs (showing the CPU core activity) instead of the 8 that I would see with a 4 core with hyper-threading processor. I have unplugged and plugged into the CPU 8 power connector pins several times and once I could see 8 graphics for about an hour until what he returned to only 4. Since then, I don't me 8 graphics no matter what I do. I replaced the MB, CPU, memory and power separately, but he never makes no difference.

    My father has a Dell with a 3770 and his task as managing only shows 4 graphics.

    I have an Asus P8Z77 - V Pro MB, i7 - 3770K, 16 GB Corsair Memory (2x8GB) CL9, PSU Corsair HX850 gold and Win 7Pro x 64. My father has a Dell with the same processor, but different everything (he has Win 7 HP x 64).

    4 graphics that appear are for 2 cores with hyperthreading. I can tell because Aida64 says only 2 hearts are running. I also only 4 graphics with the ASUS AI Suite 2 program.

    Windows is set to mode performance and no power saving features are enabled in Windows or the UEFI.

    Can someone tell me what is happening? How can I get 8 graphics is displayed all the time?

    Thank you

  • WIN8 - no desktop, black screen with the mouse pointer. Manager tasks and the login screen work.

    As usual I left my computer and after a few minutes, he fell asleep. Next morning, I had moved to the mouse, computer wakes, but I got a black screen with the mouse pointer. I hit CTRL + Alt + Delete and screen with Task Manager option appeared. I stop computer and rebooted. Welcome screen and logon is displayed. After you enter the password and click on submit that the screen becomes black with only the pointer visible mouse. I don't have not installed anything recently. Can you help me find my office?

    OK, I had the same problem. I thought that if you have a pointer and can launch Manager tasks and all programs through its file > new task, then the hull works correctly. No office and no taskbar mean that something is wrong with explorer.exe. Now, he has corrupted not necessarily, may not properly launched.

    Here's what I did:

    1. I opened the Task Manager, the Details tab

    2. I killed all explorer.exe on the list

    3. just to be safe, I also tried to kill dwm.exe but it will be may not be necessary (it never goes away)

    4. I started the new instance of explorer.exe via file > run

    And voila, I had the desktop and the taskbar.

    It will be useful.

    Corrupted hard disk I tried to remove the disk, use unlocker to see how long it would take to remove a complete 500 GB instead of formatting. He paused to remove all and windows is now on a different drive, but it always detects the other as active, I get constant popups saying some files are missing, and it is possible that the disc is damaged or a netwoprk cable has been disconnected, but it's because I deleted the files say are missing. I can not format because I have errors during the attempt, may not make a disk check but in disk manager it says the drive is healthy. I tried to install windows on t6he disk, but the format gets 99% and stops. I know that the drive is not broken, because it worked fine until I did! The windows folder is still on disk with some deleted files and the folder of the system volume and the restore folder are always there, they cannot be deleted now because when I try I get errors/popups saying that the drive is in use & that some files are missing, some of them begin with the sign $.

  • Changes in the driver vi using the Simulation Interface Toolkit (SIT) for PXI get do not appear.

    Hello

    I use Simulation Interface Toolkit to target a controller built in Simulink on a PXI target. I used the SIT connection manager to generate the driver screws I had to make some changes in the screw driver specifically Read.vi IO. I made the changes and the entire application runs without error. But the changes are not getting in the functioning of the application, essentially when I load the thing on PXI and run it, it contains exactly as it was before behaiving I made these changes. Some how the changes I make to the Read.vi of e/s are not begin day somewhere in the top vi driver.

    Could someone help me with this please.

    Eliane.

    Hi Justin_P,

    Thank you very much for the reply. Solved the problem. What you're saying, that's certainly true, but I do not use the project.

    The problem was that whenever it makes a change one driver that saw VI top-level driver must be opened and saved again. This opening and registration links the pilot with new changed correctly VI and then everything works fine.

    Thanks again.

    Eliane.
