Please fix this 100% disk problem, I've tried -everything-

SGad · 25 Jan 2017

This is my system on every boot-up for 30 minutes, and then for 5 minutes each for every application I first run after boot-up... Chrome, steam, battle.net, boinc, skype...

When I go into a game, and try to load a map it will go to 100% and then just freeze the game for 10 minutes while loading the map, after it's done it once it works fine until I reboot again.

I've tried this:

Disabled Superfetch
Disabled Background Intelligent Transfer
Disbaled Windows Search
Changed Virtual Memory to my full 16gb
Uninstalled all 3rd party AV, only using Windows Defender
Disabled off Windows Tips and Notifications
Did this: How to fix 100% disk usage in Windows 10 - Microsoft Community
Probably some other things that I can't remember...

Please help me fix this before I turn this 1200$ laptop into a submarine!

Edit: Here I am 30 minutes later clicking refresh on this web page:

Looks like a failing disk, try CrystalDiskInfo

Hello,
Check in "System" -> "Device Manager" -> "IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers" section, if there is a driver installed or there is the builtin MS driver. If that is the case find and install the appropriate driver for your machine.
In most cases it is Intel RST (Downloads for Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology (Intel(R) RST))

Under propertys, have you tried unchecking indexing?

I'm just going to reinstall windows, it's too ridiculous. I've tried this once and it worked for a while then went right back to the same thing again

Have you tried chkdsk c: /spotfix or chkdsk c: /r (takes ages)?

Hi, there's something significantly wrong with your disk transfer rate.
Compare:

That's copying a file from and to the same HDD. But look at the difference in speed for 33% use compared to yours...

@dalchina,
When I copied a 1.8gig file from one partition to another, it hit 99%. So is that bad news?

@SGad,
Your temperature seems high from all that work it's doing :)
Your Crystal disk list is not complete - there are many more parameters.
A similar, but nicer, utility which indicates likely trouble spots by red highlighting is HDDexpert from KCsoftwares
KC Softwares
in the second row is HDDExpert lite - version with no ads
just install, allow in UAC, supress display of serial if you wish, and post a complete screen shot, all rows. Like this:
