I did a fresh install of windows 8 on a HP prebuilt that I upgraded but I'm having an issue where the disk usage is always at 100%. I disabled bits and windows update but that's not it.

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

When I had this happen it turned out it was the wifi drivers acting up. Check for new ones. Also re-enable both of those services :P

 i can't because it freezes up

@thekeemo, two things that you should try: disable Windows Defender real-time protection and Windows Search service. If you don't want to disable Search service, you can pause it on Indexing Options.

rim just selling it without windows I guess I'm too lazy because the install got corrupted

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.
