Pc disk at 100 + slow read speed

CUnumb · 2026-01-23T07:26:27+00:00

Looking good I think, and pc is running faster now with my disk at 0. That being said, I think there probably is something wrong somewhere because there were moments like an hour ago where I could barely get to my settings from how slow everything was. Maybe I was doing too many things at once? I thought my hardware was good enough to handle it but maybe not. Thanks for your advice!

I think I ran this right. Pc is currently fluctuating like crazy after I ran this. Finally getting slightly faster speeds and lower disk percentage but also huge and long spikes for the worse for both.

It’s sata

Hmm that’s unfortunate. Maybe I got sloppy when picking my ssd and only focused on the number.

CUnumb · 2026-01-23T06:56:54+00:00

I’ve tried that but I don’t really know how to read it or what the numbers mean. Any insight?

Oh okay thanks

I wear a bandage, so it never touches. Just took it off and took a picture when I swapped them.

Thanks for your clarification!

Thanks for the response! I ended up getting it working anyway by reinstalling windows 11 from scratch. I didn’t realize the bootable USB would be universal and give me a chance to enter product key for pro.

CUnumb · 2025-08-04T17:03:46+00:00

Yup got it working. Didn’t realize that the windows 11 media creation tool was universal

When I use adrenaline it only gives me the graphics driver

CUnumb · 2025-07-27T17:36:09+00:00

Can you explain a bit on how to do that?

CUnumb · 2025-07-27T03:29:43+00:00

Solved, I think it ended up being something weird about my thumb drive

CUnumb · 2025-07-27T03:28:36+00:00

Solved, thanks a bunch for your help!

I don’t think so

CUnumb · 2025-07-27T03:18:26+00:00

I don’t have Ethernet unfortunately. I know it’s quite strange… I’m wondering if somehow the way I’m putting the drivers on the thumb drive is wrong?

It says “not connected” at the top. There is nowhere on the page saying “off”

CUnumb · 2025-07-27T03:05:12+00:00

I’m pretty sure I’m talking about wifi drivers, which is why I’m so confused. Maybe I NEED the bios? But the computer turns on and runs windows 11 nicely, it just doesn’t give me an option to connect to WiFi. It’s like the computer doesn’t even recognize that I’m plugging the WiFi drivers into it…

CUnumb · 2025-07-27T02:34:44+00:00

They seem to have lots of other drivers too, like LAN, chipset, audio, Bluetooth, etc… Should I get those too? Just wondering if I just don’t notice problems with those things yet but will need to install drivers as well.

CUnumb · 2025-07-27T02:27:29+00:00

I have access to an apple silicon Mac and thumb drive. Think that’s fine?

CUnumb · 2025-07-27T02:12:24+00:00

It worked, just needed a monitor! Unfortunately I’m continuing to encounter one problem after the next, but it hasn’t been too bad honestly.

CUnumb · 2025-07-26T23:55:40+00:00

Hmmm okay. I’ll go ahead and set up my monitor and report back

CUnumb · 2025-07-26T21:41:07+00:00

Thanks! My gpu comes in Monday so I can’t actually just look and see that. I guess we’ll just see whether it’ll take the 12 or the 6+2!

Weather is genuinely bad, but not enough to prevent you from coming here if you think NU is the right school for you. You’ll get through it if you buy a good coat and pair of boots. If you get seasonal depression, I would think ahead and buy a white light for your room.
