How much ram is being used when it lags

quiet dawn Jan 13, 2024, 1:43 PM

#

I haven't checked that just yet I can do so right now

stray yoke Jan 13, 2024, 1:46 PM

#

Yeah

quiet dawn Jan 13, 2024, 2:01 PM

#

yep when i play my games i dont see no spikes when the lags happens

#

its stays at 8.5

#

but one thing ive noticed is that it will freeze the pc except the game until i press the windows key and it will pause for a brief second

stray yoke Try a simple disk repair, see if it helps.

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth this command has been stuck on 62.3 percent for quite sometime now

#

dont know if thats normal

stray yoke Jan 13, 2024, 2:26 PM

#

Just let it sit in the background

quiet dawn Jan 13, 2024, 2:34 PM

#

stray yoke Just let it sit in the background

ive done the first 2 steps, when i run "chkdsk C: /f /r" it still says the same thing

stray yoke Jan 13, 2024, 2:35 PM

#

It isn't working?

#

I thought a chkdsk was not in windows but before you boot into the OS

quiet dawn Jan 13, 2024, 2:36 PM

#

it says chkdsk cannont run becasuse the volume is in use by another

quiet dawn Jan 13, 2024, 2:41 PM

#

stray yoke I thought a chkdsk was not in windows but before you boot into the OS

Well I restarted the pc now it's doing "FIXING (C:) stage 1

#

So I'm guessing it's doing it right?

stray yoke Jan 13, 2024, 2:42 PM

#

Yes

quiet dawn Jan 13, 2024, 2:44 PM

#

Ok I'll see how that goes

quiet dawn Jan 13, 2024, 2:47 PM

#

stray yoke Yes

After that I'm guessing that the disk repair is done?

stray yoke Jan 13, 2024, 2:54 PM

#

Should be

quiet dawn Jan 13, 2024, 2:57 PM

#

stray yoke Should be

Yh after that I still have the same problem :(

#
