Task Manager Replacement for win7

Squish4058 · April 22, 2016

So ive seen the task manager in windows 10 and 8 and they look great. One feature I want in particular is the graphs for drive usage directly below the graphs for CPU usage. I was even wondering of a way to just try and steal it from windows 10 but have not tried yet.
Ive done some googling and found one decent one that does not look like its made for xp and found DB Taskman, but it shows up with an "Oops" box and force closes even when running as admin.

Any ideas. I use a lot of drives and USB`s and really would prefer something like a windows 10 task manager.
Main reason for upgrading to windows 10 is the lumps of CAD software in addition to cad programs being less compatible.

Also apologies if this is in the wrong section, could have gone under operating systems I suppose but I thought this was best.

With the CAD software, couldn't you just run it in compatibility mode (if you were to get windows 10)?

well crap I wrote this once and it looked like the form went boom for 5 minutes anyway to summerise

CAD not being compatible is the largest reason I am not on W10, it is not the only one. One of the largest (and I use a lot) seems to run fine, until a month or so later you need one of those fluid analysis plugins and something that it uses refuses to work. It may work on other computers in windows 10 but thats not the point, the point is you have to redraw up everything you have done if it does not work. and it works like half the time on windows 10 and 100% of the time on windows 7.

Other reasons include like windows 10 has bricked this PC (Including secureboot not letting me into bios after breaking the OS and cmos resets were not working ish)
even more reasons are stuff like simply not liking all the setting moving etc

To sum up it wastes a lot of my time and I would much rather stick with a windows 7 task manager on windows 7 than try and get the better windows 8 one on windows 7.
But yeah all im asking is if anyone knows an easy way to get my Drive usage in some tool I can easily launch. I know things like rainmeter could also work but I dont want something that slows a pc down.
