Windows 8 100% CPU use idle by disk degragmenter
location:
microsoft.com - date:
February 15, 2013
Of the four computers I installed Windows 8 Professional upgrade to, one of the computers will jump to 99-100% CPU use when idle for about a minute. Any activity by me (access menus or programs) results in the Service Host: Disk Defragmenter to stop and
return to normal low CPU use. The PC has three hard drives, all of which report to be fully defragged (ought to be after days of defragging ;-) ).
I unplugged two of the hard drives to determine if one drive might be the culprit, but no change was observed.
The CPU temperature jumps from about 42 degrees Celcius to 49 degrees while the task manager is showing the defragmenter to be running, so I am assuming that the CPU graph in task manager is correctly

can i remove my hdd with windows 8 on and use it at a later date ?
location:

January 27, 2013
Hi everyone i bought myself a new laptop with a 1tb hdd and it has windows 8 installed. I understand the product key is encoded into the bios now and would like to know some basic things. What i want to know is if i remove the hard drive then plug it back
in will the product key automaticly register with the oem hard drive and still be activated in windows 8. The reason i ask this is because i want to put my 120gb ssd in the laptop and install my copy of windows 7 ultimate on it but would like the be able to
use the windows 8 hard drive again. The problem is im not sure if it will still be activted on that hard drive if i remove it and plug it back in.
