Hello. For the past couple days, my computer has been running pretty slow, and it shouldn't be, it's only a few weeks old. The disk usage goes up to 99/100%, my computer slows down/lags, stays like that for awhile, returns to normal, and repeats. My memory usage is at 94% (7.5/8gb) at all times, and i'm not doing anything on my computer except running chrome with a few tabs opened. If anyone could help me solve these problems or point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
