After updating to 8.1 (the update process went fine - no such issue on 8), at seemingly random moments, hard disk activity goes up the wall, essentially making the system unusable for 3-4 minutes. Here is a pic of the task manager (it can go a lot higher than 5.3 MB/s):
The Device Manager shows no driver issues/conflicts. The only differences from 8, are all those WAN miniport entries. They weren't there in 8 and I don't know what they are. (edit: after a restart, they are now gone...)
I'm literally one step before going back to Windows 7... thanks for any kind of help.
