Hi i just wonder if this is normal??
Its like this almost all the time. But after like 20-30 min it goes down to 0MB/s

Look here
 


How can i get virus?? i haven't done anything yet and its only 1 week old, i just bought this laptop
 
It is probably Superfetch. As the system is new it is in the learning your habit phase and will be more active for now. Try disabling Superfetch to see if the disk activity stops. If it does stop then you know for sure.
 
Didn't say anything about getting a virus. I asked if your AV program or malware program was running a scan

Something is running and using I/O....look in task manager to see what it is
 


Well not what i can see, now its all good, but sometimes it goes crazy...
I want to factory restore my ASUS, how do i do it? i have Windows 8 and the F9 trick dont work... :/
