I'm not running any other program, only Task Manager and Resource Monitor. It made my machine heavily non-responsive, even cursor sometimes jumps here and there and it's not accepting any keyboard input, even CTRL+ALT+DEL.

In Task Manager it says 47% (it goes between 46%-50%) because I have two disk, the other one has zero activity. Notice my CPU and RAM is idle Is there any way I can pinpoint what is actually causing the problem and how to solve it? What does svchost.exe (LocalSystemNetworkRestricted) do?

High Disk Usage

UPDATE: Visited this question, but it doesn't apply to me since I'm not running (or having) Chrome nor Skype.

UPDATE2: Disk usage Note that it's constantly reading.

The trace was a bit too short (only 5s) so I can only tell you what I see from those 5 seconds.

Most of the Disk IO comes from the superfetch service which reads data from your slow 5400rpm TOSHIBA MK5059GSXP HDD and from the kernel which reads data from the pagefile because you only have 4GB of RAM.

The best way to solve it would be to replace the slow HDD with a SSD.
