Install this program of mine

Let me know what kind of read and write speeds are happening when it happens.

Shane

Bubba Euler:
Write: ~2.0 MB/s
Read: varying between ~.25 MB/s and 1.5 MB/s

Upon occasion, both will jump mid-scale to roughly 7 - 11 MB/s

The Resource Monitor tells me that the disc is ALWAYS between 90 and 100% usage!

I must leave now, but I'll check back in the morning for additional information if you've got any ideas.  This makes my computer very sluggish, indeed!

Bubba Euler:
Good Morning, Shane!  Well, I turned-off System Restore!  Now, my HD is behaving normally.  :smiley:  Why would System Restore change its behavior from what was acceptable to constant access of the System Volume Information file?  Are there settings which are adjustable or modifiable?  What would have been the source of those changes? 

Gee, it's nice to have a normal speed computer, again!!!!

I really would like to get System Restore working normally, again. 

Have a great week end.... :artist:

Shane:
Not sure what it was doing. MS has very little info on it for some odd reason.

Myself I leave it turned off. I dont want it using the space and I do my own reg backup and backup my own files :-)

Shane

Bubba Euler:
Yes, that sounds like a very good idea!  I usually perform a backup prior to installing a major controlling program or ANY new Drivers!!!! 

I really feel safer when I also get a Registry Backup using Tweaking Windows Repair.  Good work, my friend and thank you for helping me through this annoyance to a peaceful ending.   :smiley:

Again, Merry Christmas and a very prosperous New Year!

HoHoHo!
