High CPU and Disk usage on HP Envy TS 15 j-155nf after Windows Update

I bought this laptop about a month ago and it worked perfectly fine until the second automatic Windows Update. The booting time got very slow and the entire system started to act laggy. Task Manager showed higher CPU usage than usual and Disk usage was sometimes up to 100% with no apps opened or running in the background. I decided to perform System Recovery using HP Recovery Manager. The laptop worked fine again after that, but then the same thing happened. After the second automatic Windows Update I'm back to a slow and laggy computer. I'm performing System Recovery again, but what can I do to prevent that from happening ?

Hi,
There are few things you can check:
i) Check if you have more than one anti-virus installed..Check for Trial versions.If there is any then uninstall it.
(Sometimes it could be that you have an anti-virus and windows defender or security essentials is also installed)
ii) Next try a Clean Boot and check if it makes a difference. If clean boot fixes the issue then it has to be one of the application on the startup which is slowing it down..
How to perform a clean boot
iii) Run HP Support Assitant and check if there are any pending updates..
Note:
If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem

  • Z10 - High CPU and Battery Usage with BBM

    I recently updated my Z10 (UK and EE Carrier) to 10.2.1.3062 and every day or so I am getting very high CPU and Battery Usage with BBM running in the background.
    I have never used BBM and have no active or past conversations or contacts.
    This morning, it used around 60% battery in under 3 hours, with 95% of that time sat at 'idle' in my pocket.
    Sometimes its after I have connected it to my car stereo (charging and streaming music via USB) on an Alpine CDA-117Ri, but I dont think thats a cause.
    Some screen grabs:

  • I want to backup my pinned tabs and my bookmarks as they have been lost several times after windows updates

    several times after system crashes and sometimes after windows updates my pinned tabs have disappeared. How can I back up the pinned tabs and bookmarks??

    Firefox stores the bookmarks and the browsing history in the places.sqlite database file..
    There are 10 rotating daily JSON backups (bookmarks-####-##-##.json) in the bookmarkbackups folder within the Firefox profile folder, one for each day that Firefox is started.

  • High CPU and Memory Usage

    Hi
    I have CPU usage on 100%. If i dont play games just surfing on internet its like 15-30%. But when i start game like GTA IV it goes to 100%.
    I have HP P6 2490eo and Windows 10 Build 9926. I have almost 200Gt free space on my C Drive. And this problem started about 3 days ago. I havent done virus software full check, but i think my pc does it automatically. And i have done "not full" test wih Windows Defender. With that i mean like fast test
    Could it be W10? or is my CPU broken?
    Thanks For Help

    Late98, welcome to the forum.
    I haven't used Windows 10.  However, I believe that your problem is caused by it.  I suggest running Windows Update if it is still available.  Also, if you haven't done so, you should install any patches that are available for the game.  The game is old enough that it shouldn't be causing problems for the components in your computer.

  • Warranty Void query(High Impotence) AND DISK USAGE 100% NEED HELP!!!

    I Have an HP Dv6 pavillion 7011tx. after i upgraded this laptop to windows 8, i observed that the disk usage (in task manager) always shows 100% activity..had an Clean boot, tried all the disk checks and management things . rebooted th pc again with windows 8 but still the problem continues..
    i dont think there is any solution to this problem as i have seen many many more other posts similar to this problem
    COMING TO MY QUERY,
    I think that the problem is with bios config, my hardisk type is SATA  but the bios has it set to EF mode currently .
    Which has made my pc very very slow The insyde h20 bios sucks! 
    Bios utlilty doesnt has the option even to change it. Is there any solution to this problem?
    PC Configuration:
    I5 3rd gen intel processor
    6GB Ram
    600GB HDD
    CAN THIS CONFIGURATION ACHIEVE A 100% DISK USAGE EVEN IF NOTHING BIG IS RUNNING IN BACKGROUND?
    I AM THINKING TO BUY AN SOLID STATE DRIVE, i hope that it will resolve the problem as it is compatible on both the mode. I will extend my HDD with SDD!
    Can i do it myself or shall i have to go to HP CENTER.
    DOES MY WARRANTY GETS VOID IF I OPEN THE LAPTOP BACK FOR THIS ?
    REPLY ASAP (URGENT)

    Hi,
    Disk Usage 100% does not mean disk full but there is task which is doing a lot of i/o during that time (probably swap/page file). If nothing using i/o, the number should be down to 0% as shown:
    Now, I start a download, you can see both disk usage and Networks activities:
    In your case, the utility may do a lot of i/o to the swap/page file. My suggestion: stop it or BUYING MORE RAM.
    Hope this helps.

  • Unnaturally high cpu and memory usage

    Hello.
    I have installed WL 6.1 and WL Portal 4.0 on a w2k machine. It has a
    800 cpu (I think), and 512 RAM.
    What happens is: After server startup, everything is low and nice. But
    after a few jsp compilations, the cpu jumps to 100% and stays there,
    even after the page has been returned and the browser says "done".
    Actually, memory usage isn't that high; the java process is using
    about 50 megs of memory. But it has exceeded this a couple of times,
    and used 200+ MB.
    The database is also running on another machine.
    I tried deploying the same application on a locally installed
    WL/Portal, and the same thing happened, only with much more memory
    usage, about 200 - 250 megs. My machine became useless, and I had to
    shut down the server.
    What is causing this? Is the server's configuration totally screwed,
    or can some code be doing this? Btw, I know I am the only user on this
    server...
    On other threads here, I have seen people supplying server dumps of
    processes etc. How do I see this dump, or what processes within the
    server are running?
    I am very grateful for any help with this.
    Christer

    Take a thread dump of the server. You should at least be able to see
    what it's doing.
    On UNIX, you can send a SIGQUIT. (ie kill -3 the process)
    On Windows, you can CTRL-BREAK in the window.
    If you search for thread dump on edocs.bea.com, you should see a full
    explanation.
    Also, these groups can be searched on groups.google.com.

  • HP ENVY 14-1110nr no sound after windows update

    I updated my windows 8 on my HP envy for first time in a while, now the sound doesn't work and tells me that no audio output device is installed. I've tried looking for new driver for speakers , but HP doesn't list a windows 8 version for my model.

    Go to system restore and choose a restore point dated before the update that removed the sound. Execute the system restore.
    You should also be able to go to the Intel download center and download the Windows 8 IDT driver for your audio device. 
    Don't forget to keep us up to date on your success or the lack therof.

  • Performance issue with high CPU and IO

    Hi guys,
    I am encountering huge user response time on a production system and I don’t know how to solve it.
    Doing some extra tests and using the instrumentation that we have in the code we concluded that the DB is the bottleneck.
    We generated some AWR reports and noticed the CPU was in top wait events. Also noticed that in a random manner some simple sql take a long time to execute. We activated the sql trace on the system and noticed that for very simple SQLs (unique index access on one table) we have huge exec times. 9s
    In the trace file the huge time we had it in fetch area: 9.1s cpu and elapsed 9.2.
    And no or very small waits for this specific SQL.
    it seems like the bottle neck is on the CPU but at that point there were very few processes running on the DB. Why can we have such a big cpu wait on a simple select? This is a machine with 128 cores. We have quicker responses on machines smaller/busier than this.
    We noticed that we had a huge db_cache_size (12G) and after we scale it down we noticed some improvements but not enough. How can I prove that there is a link between high CPU and big cache_size? (there was not wait involved in SQL execution). what can we do in the case we need big DB cache size?
    The second issue is that I tried to execute an sql on a big table (FTS on a big table. no join). Again on that smaller machine it runs in 30 seconds and on this machine it runs in 1038 seconds.
    Also generated a trace for this SQL on the problematic machine:
    call     count       cpu    elapsed       disk      query    current        rows
    Parse        1      0.00       0.00          0          0          0           0
    Execute      1      0.00       0.00          0          0          0           0
    Fetch        1    402.08    1038.31    1842916    6174343          0           1
    total        3    402.08    1038.32    1842916    6174343          0           1
      db file sequential read                     12419        0.21         40.02
      i/o slave wait                             135475        0.51        613.03
      db file scattered read                     135475        0.52        675.15
      log file switch completion                      5        0.06          0.18
      latch: In memory undo latch                     6        0.00          0.00
      latch: object queue header operation            1        0.00          0.00
    ********************************************************************************The high CPU is present here also but here I have huge wait on db file scattered read.
    Looking at the session with the select the AWG_wait for db scattered read was 0.5. on the other machine it is like 0.07.
    I though this is an IO issue. I did some IO tests at SO level and it seems like the read and writes operation are very fast…much faster than the machine that has the awg_wait smaller. Why the difference in waits?
    One difference between these two DBs is that the problem one has the db block size = 16k and the other one has 8k.
    I received some reports done at OS level on CPU and IO usage on the problematic machine (in normal operations). It seems like the CPU is very used and the IO stays very low.
    On the other machine, the smaller and the faster one, it is other way around.
    What is the problem here? How can I test further? Can I link the high CPU to low/slow IO?
    we have 10G on sun os with ASM.
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, there are many things you can and should do to isolate this. But first check MOS Poor Performance With Oracle9i and 10g Releases When Using Dynamic Intimate Shared Memory (DISM) [ID 1018855.1] isn't messing you up to start.
    Also, be sure and post exact patch levels for both Oracle and OS.
    Be sure and check all your I/O settings and see what MOS has to say about those.
    Are you using ASSM? See Long running update
    Since it got a little better with shrinking the SGA size, that might indicate (wild speculation here, something like) one of the problems is simply too much thrashing within the SGA, as oracle decides "small" objects being full scanned in memory is faster than range scans (or whatever) from disk, overloading the cpu, not allowing the cpu to ask for other full scans from I/O. Possibly made worse by row level locking, or some other app issue that just does too much cpu.
    You probably have more than one thing wrong. High fetch count might mean you need to adjust the array size on the clients.
    Now that that is all out of the way, if you still haven't found the problem, go through http://oracle-randolf.blogspot.com/2009/02/basic-sql-statement-performance.html
    Edit: Oh, see Solaris 10 memory management conflicts with Automatic PGA Memory Management [ID 460424.1] too.

  • Get CPU and memory usage

    Hi!
    I would like to know if there is any way of getting system CPU and memory usage using Java code.

    I want to get the system CPU and memory usage using the performance monitor dll, the perfctrs.dll, but access this data using Java language.Then you should create wrapper dll between your java code and perfctrs.dll and convert data from format of dll to format of your java code.
    So, that is next question - how to create wrapper dll, how to deal with or how perfctrs.dll works?

  • Firefox keeps freezing and using 50% cpu and memory usage shoots up most of the time it's when there's an auto update of anything addon, plugin or ff!

    Firefox keeps freezing and using 50% cpu and memory usage shoots up real fast and carries on going till it uses up all there is left. Most of the time it's when there's an auto update of anything addon, plugin or ff but not just neccessarily then! I find out it's happened when there's been an update after i restart and an extra webpage comes up with the particular addon/plugin/ff update. I have to restart most of time because nothing sorts it out. I'm using windows xp with the latest update of ff 13.0.1 it's not this version because it's been happening for a while. And it never started when i added a particular addon or plugin or when i added a new app to my pc either. Any idea as to what this may be or how i'd sort it out?
