Unfortunately ethernet is not an option, but I will try switching out the WiFi card for another one I have. On a side note: I currently do have a ethernet network that consists of another windows 10 system, being used as a NAS. With the wifi off on the problem PC I'm getting internet through the NAS system... Strange.

In line with updates released computer hung this morning. Attached is the drivers from LatencyMon. Drivers.txt

Thanks, Runefox, currently monitoring and will get back when it hangs again.

I am aware that having a large load on the system can cause high disk usage, but this issue happens even at idle, nothing open or loading, regardless of the antivirus doing scans or being disabled, leading me to believe it is a windows 10 issue.

Not sure how many people have experienced this issue, and googling has produced results that are not helpful... Every so often Windows 10 will hang on me, persisting for several minutes at a time or longer. This happens most often when windows updates are (attempting) to install, but recently it has been happening randomly when the system is idle. Previously I got around the issue by manually installing updates, however it has returned. System specs: i7-4790K stock clock 16GB Ram Gigabyte Z97X-Gaming 3 Motherboard 120GB Samsung 840EVO SSD 1TB WD HDD Asus Strix GTX970 2 1080p monitors and a third 1440*900 When the computer hangs, all open widows, being chrome, skype, explorer, will still play sound, but they will not update on screen (video still playing, but frozen image), however the mouse will still move between all monitors, once the buffer is used the audio stops. I created an event view to see what was happening and most of the hangs are related to windows security auditing, event id 4797. This is then followed by a windows hang report for explorer.exe, before the system recovers and work normally again. I have already disabled cortana, apps are installed on the ssd (though I have none), and it generally happens just as system pins ssd usage to 100%. If anyone has any ideas it would be great, thanks.

I would love a new keyboard to replace the 15+ year old Compaq keyboard that came with my dad's original computer. The model is a KU-9978

Just an interesting point on this, Linus plugs the 2 computers into each other directly, and automatically gets 10gbps connection, however doing this with standard ethernet I have found that the connection is less than the rated speed. I was transferring files off an old computer today, using another laptop, the max connection speed speed was only 100mbps, but both had a 1gbps connector. However, my desktop when connected to either using ethernet got a 1gbps on both... Either way, the hardest part is saturating the connection with older and limited hardware, but still faster than a usb 3.0 HDD on a 2.0 hub
