What I mean by that is when you go to the Task Manager normally CPU usage starts at 100% for a second then goes to what it should be. But my problem is whenever I do certain things these days my system starts to go really slow, such as after I play an intensive game or even when I leave a few files downloading over night. Apps take a while to load for example when I return to the computer. I can tell when the computer is going to act like this by simply going to the Task Manager and seeing if the CPU usage starts at 100% or not. Quite often it starts at 89% or another lower number, and that means things are slow for a while - I think it is the HDD been slow.
I don't know if I've explained the situation well enough, but I think it is a problem which all computer users have to put up with, as the same things happen to my brother's computer. What is it exactly?
Is there anyway to stop the number of times this happens, I think it is to do with the HDD been worked to hard or something, but I don't know.
