Hello, fellow geeks. Hope you're all doing well today.
I've been having problems with my freshly built system.
Hard disk goes to 100% or either produces spikes in task manager graphical view.
The hard drive is in full working order, because I had a fully functioning one (I took it out from my old system), and the same symptoms occurred to it as well, went to 100%.
Both hdds are Seagate Baracuda 64 MB cache and running at 7200rpm. One is 2TB and the other one is 1TB.
I've tried several things, such as disabling superfetch, prefetch, BITS, editing registry keys and adding some essential ones. Nothing worked.
What's strange is that output and input devices connected to the back panel of the motherboard disconnect when a freeze occurs during gaming or IDLE...... Mostly the speakers don't disconnect, instead they produce buzzy noise or convert the output sounds and 50% of the sound buzzes..... The screen works fine, while gaming, I can see people running around without any lags while this freeze occurs, loosing input and output devices connected to the back of mobo.....
i am doing chkdsk /f /r now and it's stuck on 10% for like 30 minutes now....

UPDATE: I did try reinstalling windows, several times and trying windows 7 and windows 8.. Not one of them helped, same issues.
Asus Crosshair v formula - Z
AMD FX 9370 8 cores
8GB R9 AMD RAM (4x2GB DDR3)
CPU COOLING SYSTEM noctua nh-dh140 (If i remember the full name of it correctly, it's just gigantic.......)
Corsair HX850 PSU
2TB Hard Drive
DVD Drive
2 GRAPHIC CARD USING CROSSFIRE cable
Both are AMD 280x R9
One is Sapphire Vapor with two fans
the other one is Toxic with a triple fan system.
I'm using the Toxic one as the primary GPU (Nearest to the CPU).

Not unusual to take hours for chkdsk to finish a disk that size. I would get back to it the next day.

Last resort, you can always use something like Killdisk to zero the HDD completely. If that throws errors, probably the HDD is bad .

Most likely driver corresponding problems which I have no clue how to find out and fix them..
ASUS driver disc was included with the mobo and it had lots of drivers which i installed. I noticed the disc 5 days after the system was built, but I think that the freezes occurred during the first five days... whaha...
When HDD is at 100%, it doesn't display who causes it in the task manager or shows that the system, local host or anything similar uses 2 - 50mb/s to read or write... the response time is ussually 5000 ms during 100% disc activity, and it gets to 10000ms.... But strangelly, no freezes occur then.. It just lags...

Note, drivers were installed by sequence from a driver disc included by the motherboard.. Some say that Asus ai suite causes a lot of crashes, but once I uninstall it, network drivers and other ones uninstall along with ai suite...

could you manually download those drivers via Asus website. http://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/CROSSHAIR_V_FORMULAZ/HelpDesk_Download/

Anyway, regarding your issue, what is your Memory usage when Disk usage is at 100%?
Have you changed your page file (virtual memory) to double your actual memory?

Thanks for quick answers (Y) appreciate your time. The HDD is set to AHCI. When idle, system consumes 1.1GB of RAM and usage of disc is 100%. I didn't change anything with the pagefile. It's set to 3.70 GB if I remember correctly. I'm in hospital at the moment so I can't check 🙁

well feel better. Unfortunately the disk usage is a know problem with win8. You seem to have already gone through all the known solutions. You should try setting your page file to 16gb. Can't hurt. I would try to run through the Chkdsk /f/r. Wait it out as it can take a very long time.

I believe windows 8.1, takes it upon itself to re-organize files on a hard drive that wasn't pre formatted with a Full Format (that scans for bad sectors), and this is the reason for high disk usage. So unless drive was given a full format prior to windows installation, 8.1 will try to re-organize files and cause high disk usage spikes.

I've tried reinstalling windows 7.. Same activity occurring... There must be a way.. Because computers freezes randomly.. Doesn't show anything positive. What's worth to mention is that start up takes longer than it is supose to be. 3 or 4 times longer with windows 8.1 . I used chkdsk.exe /f /r already. I'm going to mount a bootable win disc and launch the system to boot on the disc, run command prompt and then do the chkdsk.exe.....ohh, I also I turned off fast startup on the mobo, disabled sleep and hibernate mode.. Didn't help.

I had the original version of formula which didn't support fx9xxx series, I was still able to run that cpu on the original motherboard but everything wad lagging big time, then I've ordered the Z version which worked perfectly with the cpu.. But the freezes and 100% active time... Some people are experiencing the same problems and were not able to find any solutions, we could be the first ones.... Haha

I've seen the official Asus post of the compability. Fx9xxx series are compatible with ONLY 3 motherboards in the world.
Asus crosshair v formula z
Ashrock.... And another one I can't remember. A lot of people are using fx9xxx series on formula z and have no problems. What can be the factors of the problem... Mhm..
System, local host, services go to 40-50mb/s sometimes.. Mostly something invisible in the task manager does that, task manager doesn't show which programs cause these issues. Can it be something with the AODDriver? I get errors in event viewer after crashes sometimed, saying that AODDriver 4.3 file location not specified, file not found

I guess if you go by hype pages and not true support pages I guess your fine

did you know the boards that support these chips were revised to do so and theses anus boards were not ??? [asrock had 12 phase power on it all ready] gigabytes are the fx''a'' boards like the 990fxa ud3 rev 4 only

like I said if the board was built for a 140w and with out reviseing the board for 220w its fishy to me and then theres this foot note -- Due to the high TDP, please be noted there are limitations while using this CPU(i.e. special thermal required..)"
so do you got that '' special thermal required'' on yours ??

Probobly I don't, because I don't know which thermal paste is it. However I'm using an aftermarket heatsink with double fan system noctua nh-d14, so that shouldn't be a problem
