| | Win 7 64 bit hard disk always active, why? For several weeks I have noticed that the laptop does not go into sleep mode all the time. I also noticed that the hard disk LED is blinking a lot. I checked the system monitor and no apps are running, as for processors very little action. The question is how does one look for the cause of the disk activity? System Dell Inspiron 1764 2.6 GHz intel processor 4 GB memory. Kaspersky virus software |
