Windows 8.1 this. Isn't a first

[iblackboy]

Okay so my computer has been working fine ever since I re started from when the computer worked because of the same problem fine but now it's back! The hard drive is running @ 100% and then the computer crashes it holds at 100% and when I had win7 this didn't happen I can't go back as it was like a student one time thing. I need help to fix this I've disabled bits, uninstalled chrome and opened Skype.

(Some of the solutions) but this didn't work ! Help !!!!!!?

If no one can help can Linus please make a video on this I'm not the only one who has this many of my friends have this but they just always format their PCs I have a load of games on mine and can't be bothered to re download 200-300gb of games ._. And files

Welcome to the Forum.

 

What are the full specs of the machine and do you have the latest (and correct) drivers installed or were you not able to do that before it started crashing?

Why have you disabled BITS? that will have nothing to do with your hard drive running at 100%  :huh: .

Go to task manager and see what is using up your disk

Yup.

 

To sort by disk usage, go to Performance, then click on Disk once, making sure you're at the top of the page.

Normally it's the system or the anti malware software from windows but it changes all the time

One thing I would check is your hard drive. I've noticed when hard drives start to fail, they will momentary lock up your computer while trying to recover the data.To check it you can download Crystal Disk Info. http://osdn.jp/projects/crystaldiskinfo/downloads/63399/CrystalDiskInfo6_5_1.zip/?use_mirror=jaist

Hard drives can die before you even get them. Some hard drives last 5+ years, others last less than a day. Fortuantley usually its 5+ years, but you never know.

It's always possible your hard drive is bad, or it could be a virus.

Okay, lets try this. Type Win + R. You should see a dialog box called run. In that box, type services.msc. Look for services called Windows Update and Windows Modules Installer and stop those services. Also, may I see a screenshot of task manager please?
