After months of troubleshooting couldnt find the reason for 90% cpu usage on a HP 255 G3 laptop (AMD E1 6010 + 4gb 1333 ram)
So i saw windows 7 would come to an end and as well a good deal for an intel 545s 128gb ssd (brand new for 17EUR) I realised i need to go and insatll win10
Since my laptop required a total disasembely to swap the hdd with an ssd i wanted to try first win10 on that toshiba 500gb hdd
I updated the latest bios and installed the win 10, it ran "usable" *(comapred to my pc's i5 6500 and 16gb of ram it was shit) with normal \ low cpu usage but hdd was on 100%
than i got a set of small torex screwdrivers and started the update process, took me 1h to complete
I started the instalation and as soon as the copying files to disk apperad i saw something was not all right it was slower than on hdd, i taught maybe its my crappy old usb 3.0 drive
Than the first startup, oh boi it took full 3 minutes until Please wait, dont turn of youre computer, we are setting things up screen apperad
than the final reboot, and it took 67sec to reboot, that was crap, i tried my older windows 10 usb installed same things happening.
can anyone tell me is it 100% the ssd bc i will need 1h to remove it and i wonna make sure that it is the problem
And yeah no AHCI settings in bios i could find, maybe i should look a little better...
I will now try to install ubuntu 19.04 desktop and see how it holds up there, if it works good imma ditch windows since i only used this laptop to manage my ubuntu servers and for web browsing
Thank you ahead !!!
PS: sorry for typos my keyboard is real bad (amazon basics lol)
EDIT: All i want is to confirm that it is 100% the bad ssd, bc i do not wonna go again trough the stress of opening the laptop and unscrewing 40 screws, lots of riben cables, i need to remove the keybaord etc....
Bios is updated bc the old one was not uefi so it couldnt pick up windows 10 usb installer in boot menue (laptop is from 2011)
