Therefore, one of network related driver is a problem, so let’s find which one. The driver tag found by poolmon.exe was “Wfpn” and findstr found “ netio.sys” that is the part of Win8 core networking subsystem. Poolmon.exe showed that non-paged memory grows constantly when copying big files (few 100MB). I used the tool “ poolmon.exe” (part of Windows Driver Kit) to find out which driver is causing the memory leak ( link1, link2, link3). I suspected some third-party network driver is reason for this. Just Chrome browser and MS Word were running most of the mory usage 3.5GB !?!?! The new task manager was showing that the non-paged memory pool raised very fast memory usage stopped at ~3.6GB and then machine started to crawl. When I started to copy big files around LAN (ISO files, AVI.), torrents. Memory usage at start-up was similar as with Win7 (~1GB of total 4GB) but now the story begins. New Modern UI.nice.polished desktop, speed.nice too. I made a clean installation that took ~20min. Win7 served me perfectly for the last two years and I was quite curious how Win8 (Windows 8 Pro Build 9200 圆4) compares with it. I will leave it at that since your posting in also : note post in only one forum.Įdited by Pkshadow, 09 January 2021 - 02:57 AM.Few days after Win8 RTM launch I decided to install it on my old good HP Pavilion DV7 laptop.

The issue should have been fixed in October 2018 ĭo not download anything from here as it is not needed but the info is great (from 2019 : As it runs on mine in Task Manager Performance at the bottom in the Heading : Windows Services On a note there about : Desktop Window Manager if find that it is running in a strange please in Task Manager. If it is not the issue leave it uninstalled until find the issue. It is a problematic software that causes issues of various kinds on Windows and in Browsers and unless uninstalled it is impossible to see if that is/was the causing your issue or not. I suggest you start with Uninstalling all things Avast.
