Windows 8.1 - 100% Disk usage & most of it is by ntoskrnl.exe ?

Hi,

The day i bought my new vaio laptop. i m facing this Disk usage 100% problem as it came with by default windows 8 OS. I thought it may be an bug or something may be it will be get fixed in windows 8.1. but , even after updating to windows 8.1 m still facing the same problem.

I gone through so many forums and tried everything. even i tried with clean windows 8.1 installation.

So,please i just want to know is there any solution for this. or now finally i have to go back to windows 7.

Thanks,

Maddy

If your computer came like this return it to your place of purchase.  If that is impossible please upload your event viewer logs so we can examine them

*

Please provide us with your Event Viewer administrative logs by following these steps:


Click Start Menu
Type eventvwr into Search programs and files (do not hit enter)
Right click eventvwr.exe and click Run as administrator
Expand Custom Views
Click Administrative Events
Right click Administrative Events
Save all Events in Custom View As...
Save them in a folder where you will remember which folder and save as Errors.evtx
Go to where you saved Errors.evtx
Right click Errors.evtx -> send to -> compressed (zipped) folder
Upload the .zip file to skydrive or a file sharing service and put a link to it in your next post * If you have updated to win 8.1 and you get the error message "the system cannot find the file specified" it is a known problem.  The work around is to edit the registry.  If you are not comfortable doing this DONT.  If you are, backup the key before you do Press Win+"R" and input regedit
Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WINEVT\Channels. Delete "Microsoft-Windows-DxpTaskRingtone/Analytic"

For starters you license activation continually fails.  Do you have a valid install and key?

You need to run WGA and remove KMSActivator.  Until you do we cant help you as this appears to be a modded OS

Please go here http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=genuinewindows7  Read the "please read before posting" on how to run the WGA application.

I would also run Malwarebytes

Please download the free version of Malwarebytes.
Update it immediately.
Do a full system scan
Let us know the results at the end.

Hi,

I understand that as am using KMSActivator you can't help me out with this problem.

Actuall, My vaio came with windows 8 and while i was using 8 i was facing that Disk usage 100% problem.Someone suggested me to wait for windows Blue i.e 8.1 as may be that Disk Usgae problem will be get fixed.But even after updating to windows 8.1 from Windows Store am facing the same problem.

After going through so many forums and Microsoft blog some suggested me to go for clean windows installation.

So, i did that n even after clean 8.1 installation am facing the sam problem.

Now, i can't format my laptop again to go back to my default os from revocery DVD's as, even after that alsso this problem will be there.

So, it will be really helpfull if you help me out with this Problem.once, this problem is solved then i will go back to my default OS of else have to Downgrade to windows 7 :(

Thanks & Regards,

Maddy

We cant touch the system until it has been deemed genuine.  We have no idea what the "activator" is doing and it may in itself be contributing to the problem.

Sorry
