Google Chrome Causing 100 SSD Usage

[AustinMxr1]

This is a common problem but I can't find any working solutions for me.

So yeah as the title says, when I use Google chrome, just for browsing youtube mainly, about every 5-15 minutes, my entire computer freezes, my C drive, which is my SSD, spikes to 100%, and it stays like that for at least 30-50 seconds. This happens CONSTANTLY while Chrome is open, and has happened only once while it wasn't.

Here's what I've tried:

-I don't have the option to disable "Prefetch resources to load pages more quickly", but I did disable "Use a prediction service to load pages more quickly", Which I assume is the same thing.

-Turning off hardware acceleration in chrome

-Getting rid of all add-on's/extentions in Google Chrome, except for AdBlock.

-Setting Chrome to default theme

-Closing all other processes and background processes

-Restarting my computer (obviously)

-Testing my SSD with the program SSDLife, it gave me a 97% healthy SSD, with a great lifespan


So yeah, any ideas? Thanks!

Try going into the settings of chrome, then the advanced settings.

Disable hardware acceleration if you have not already done so Austin.

Close chrome.

Then open a new window, or chrome session.

Thanks for the reply but I am still having the same issue.
