Vista Windows Back-Up 100% Disk Utilization
I have an HP intel Core 2 Quad Vista Home Premium 64 Pavillion with 4GB RAM & 4GB Ready Boost. Every week or so the computer runs dog slow for hours. The disk is pegged at 100% utilization. I have had this issue since I purchased the HP Pavillion m9250f in June 2008. Worked with both HP & Microsoft, they claim the system is nomral Vista decides to do some type of windows back-up,tons of svchost.exe files scanned as IO Priority in Background, as I watch them from the Vista Reliabaility & Performance Monitor (100% Disk Utilization) I do my own application file back-ups with no problems. This backup or scanning that slows my computer is some type of function in Vista and I can not start it or stop, According to Microsoft it is a normal function in Vista. But Why does it make my system crawl for hours until it is complete, I do not have much data on my hard drive, I have taken off all my music and jpg files. Does anyone know how to at least schedule the Vista Windows System File Back-Up, this way I can run it over night and not have to be at the mercy of Vista when it decides to run it's System File back-up Thank you Banjo 200 -- Banjo200
