    Question System using 100% of SSD, still reading and writing, WiFi adapter stops working - - - any potential causes ?

    Ah I see. The second screenshot I provided does actually show the disk activity but I failed to expand it all the way. To be fair the computer was just barely functioning while I was trying to do this. Based on the image though, it would seem the entirety of the disk activity was from an...

    Question System using 100% of SSD, still reading and writing, WiFi adapter stops working - - - any potential causes ?

    So it finally happened again. It seems to particularly happen after I've transported to another location. Unsure if it's just coincidence but it's happened multiple times after I've moved from one place to another turned the laptop on. Anyway, here's images of the resource monitor. Sorry for it...

    Question System using 100% of SSD, still reading and writing, WiFi adapter stops working - - - any potential causes ?

    It has been doing this since last Friday. It's possible the new update had something to do with it but the issue with me being unable to connect to the Internet because of the 100% disk usage made it difficult to check for updates. I've since installed the newest update but haven't had time to...

    Question System using 100% of SSD, still reading and writing, WiFi adapter stops working - - - any potential causes ?

    After I attempted to do a system restore, and the screen just stayed black while still running, I just powered it down with the power button and turned it back on. After I did so I for a moment considered doing a System reset from the settings, you know the one that keeps your files, chose cloud...

    I tried to do a system restore from safe mode but the screen just went black but the keyboard lights and power indicator are still on and I can till hear it running. Not sure if it's doing anything.

    Question System using 100% of SSD, still reading and writing, WiFi adapter stops working - - - any potential causes ?

    I just recently updated so that might be the issue but if I remember correctly the issue propped up just prior to me updating it I believe. I'll try a system restore

    Question System using 100% of SSD, still reading and writing, WiFi adapter stops working - - - any potential causes ?

    Oh my apologies, I forgot to mention the laptop doesn't shut down from the shut down/restart/sleep options. I have to manually hold down the power button for it to actually shut down. But I did try and safe mode does turn on but the laptop is still running very loudly and I can't use my mouse cursor

    Question PC crashing and restarting but only once per initial boot

    As the title suggests, my PC has been having this issue where it will find its self crashing and restarting instantly usually 20-30 minutes after I boot it up, sometimes sooner if I launch a game or even just random happenstance. Then after the initial crash and restart, the PC seems to work...
