Disk runs 100% in task manager after opened dolphin - AdeDarma - 02-05-2016
Hello... thank you for helped me for any kind of problem i have.
and now i just realized that make my laptop run slow when and after booting after i opened dolphin before i shuted down my laptop. also in the task manager in process tab show up that the disk run 100%. this is happened everytime after i open my dolphin, if i'm not open dolphin the disk procces works fine. can someone tell me why this happened?
and my game still lag like this for the intro of ubisoft logo and when click the screen sometimes (3:35)
Example of videos by somebody
and this lag is happen to me when i want to choose a song in songs list, clicking the song, and the gameplay.
and this one of the songs list video by someone
if theres no more ways, i'll give up on this. i know my laptop specs is not really good enough to play this also the game compatibility only has 2 stars only (but i'm not try the Just Dance 4 and Just Dance 3 yet with 5 stars compatibility on my laptop) and i decided to buy a new pc on march/april with more powerful machine.
Thank You

What do you mean by disk? "disk process"? Did you mean CPU usage? Dolphin shouldn't use your hard disk that intensively when emulating. Also, there's no such thing as a "disk process". And yes, you're correct: your machine is currently not very powerful. The CPU is an old mobile CPU (which hurts performance), and you're using a very, very weak integrated GPU.

the disk process, not the CPU usage. the disk doesn't really work when emulating but the CPU does. but the effect apeear after i shuted down my laptop and turn it on again or restart it, cause everytime after i open dolphin then turned my laptop off and turn it on again my laptop works really slow and lag when booting and in my desktop the shortcut and everything takes around 1-2 minutes to appear. and i need to wait around 5 minutes and open task manager and i saw the disk process run 98-100%

my laptop work a little faster than before after i update my windows and clean the dust inside it and replace the thermal paste. works really smooth with just dance 2014 and still little bit lag with just dance 2016 (but i don't know about the just dance 2015 cause i don't try to open the just dance 2015)
this is what i mean about my disk process in task manager, it's always been like this after i open dolphin.

the avast antivirus run around 2mb/s and the service host local sytem run around 11mb/s how could that happened?

That's not a "disk" process. That is a disk IO usage. Process (to keep it simple) roughly means program.
It seems that the issue is not Dolphin, but your antivirus software.

Looks like your A/V is going nuts and my guess is trying to scan your ISO being used.
