So I got a new laptop, HP, and I'm experiencing issues when everything would just freeze/lag for a second or two. Task manager shows 100% disk usage when it happens. And sometimes chrome would just stop responding or crash.
I've tried disabling superfetch, disabling pagefile, downloading all the drivers again and a whole bunch of solutions on the internet but it is still happening. I am starting to think it could be a hardware issue.
Could it be a problem with the hard disk? The shop did say he changed the HDD from 500GB to 1TB. Would spending $100 on an SSD fix it? Could it actually be faulty hardware/refurb?
Or maybe its windows 10? Anybody else having these issues? The laptop is still under warranty but I don't want another one with the same issues.
Specs:
i5-5500U, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD.
