90% and higher CPU, Memory, and Disk that are constantly fluctuating

0
0

I've been trying to figure this out all day and am at the end of my ropes. I have a gaming PC so I thought this laptop was just a bit slower, but then I went to Youtube and saw just how bad it was. The video was lagging and stuttering like crazy, and not simply buffering, the audio was still playing fine. That wasn't the craziest thing; if I moved the cursor at all, the animation completely locked up. 

 

I went to task manager to see what was happening. Right now, as I type this, the CPU is 97% and keeps bouncing around. It's not just one or two major sources either, it's hundreds of tiny ones. Disk just went up to 100% for no reason. Memory is 66%. The only thing I have done is start up, connect my Microsoft account for Windows Defender, and run Ninite to get Chrome and other basic programs. I haven't even ran any of them other than Chrome.

 

Things I've tried:

 

  • Removing every bit of bloatware I can find and disabling any app. 
  • Running Windows Update Troubleshooter
  • Reinstallation of Windows

I don't even know. Here's some screenshots of the task manager. This is after completely resetting the laptop. The only thing I've installed is Chrome, and funny enough, it isn't even in the top 10 tasks hogging resources most of the time.Screenshot (6).pngScreenshot (4).pngScreenshot (3).png

ZBook Studio x360 G5 - bluetooth keyboard with fingerprint ID

0
0

Trying to figure out how to use a Microsoft EKZ-00001 bluetooth keyboard with fingerprint ID with a docked ZBook Studio x360 G5.  For some reason the fingerprint ID doesn't work. When I logon I'm only given the option of typing my windows password. 

 

Under settings/Sign-in options, under Windows Hello, I can properly register my fingerprint, so I know the equipment works.  But how do I enable fingerprint sign-in?

 

Also I tried creating a PIN for sign in, first asks for my windows password but then the window disappears.

 

My laptop has something called "HP Client Security".  Is this causing a conflict?  In there is "Identity Security", in there is "Fingerprints", but this doesn't recognize my keyboard's fingerprint reader.  I disabled "HP Sure Run" because it causes too many security warnings when I boot the computer - one after another after another ad nauseum.   Under "Security Features" I disabled everything including "Windows Logon Security" because it says "Windows Logon will disable Windows Hello".

 

Can I simply uninstall HP Client Security Manager?  Would this solve the problem?

In a bit of a pickle and not sure what to do. Internet not very helpful on the subject. Accidently spilled some water on the right side of my keyboard last night and now 3 keys are screwed up. The "P", "Delete", "<-", "->", and "-" keys. The "P" key types the letter, but leaves the cursor on the left side instead of the right. : eter arker is sider-manppp. The "Del" key acts just like the "=" key, the "<-" key acts like the "P" key, the "->" types a 0, and the "-" key jumps to the top of the page before showing the -. Any suggestions on what to do or is my keyboard completely screwed?
 Also, 1,2,3,7,8,9 on numlock pad dont work at all.
Friend of mine suggested getting a new keyboard.
