Report a translation problem
I put in my first SSD a couple months ago and it is so much faster. Windows boots in seconds compared to minutes. It won't solve your problem though, it'll just make it less obvious. Your disk reads will be faster but if I'm right about the page file they'll still be stuck at 100%.
1 backup most important data, game saves, bookmarks, etc.
2 full erase hdd with victoria for dos (magic boot disk 2.0 \ bootable usb with dos)
3 full scan hdd with victoria for dos - if there present surface errors - buy new WD Black \ HGST 7200 rpm hdd
4 on other pc make bootable usb with latest W10
5 install W10, drivers, updates, software, steam
6 tune up settings, defragment
7 install games
optional: buy an samsung 250 SSD and start from step 5
i have 8gigs RAM, and I've increased the pagefile size, but that doesn't seem to have solved my problem.
And as you are now on Win10
Give Shutup10 a try, that may help.
Another thing is, generally when updating to Win10 reinstalling drivers is a general rule
Ethernet
Soundcard
GPU
Uninstalling those and manually installing the correct Win10 drivers would be a start.
The other thing is, you only have 8GB RAM, its a general rule when having a 6GB-8GB VRAM GPU to double your Physical RAM for a buffer. Though its doubtful thats the cause.
If you do move to an SSD, do a Fresh install, otherwise your issues MAY transfer to it.
Also, have you tried turning off Windows Defenders realtime scanner and other options? it can be a pain.
All that aside, its honestly better to do a clean install after Win10 has been registered.
I cloned my HDD onto an SSD. The SSD holds the operating system while everything else goes into the HDD. What actually happened in my case was I wiped my OS while trying to clone it so I had to get another key.
My computer freezing while playing games was another problem, which had to do with an inadequate heatsink and fan cooling a CPU that would go up to 90*C.
My Windows 10 recently did an update and left 33Gb old Windows data on my 128Gb SSD (windows.old)
I'm getting the "less than 25%" warning after startup for the SSD right now.
I'll leave these old unused Windows files for now as I wait to see if the new update works w/o problems.
In a week or two I'll run disk cleaner and select "clean system files" and check the "Previous Windows Install" box to free up that 33Gb.
this will disable all usage on all drives and drivers to enable gaming mode if this wont help that sounds like viruses loading up man or just to many processes via task manager
