Hey so anyways i keep getting the BSOD but i heard its like untreatable but idk about that so im asking you about that. Oh also my CPU meter is always high idk how to lower it and what does defraging your comp do, like i tryed it but nothing changed but idk when its done. :facewall:
 
First, you can go to Task Manager (right click the TaskBar > choose Task Manager), then click the Processes Tab. Look in the 'CPU' column to see which Process is hogging the CPU.

As for Defragging your PC, run which ever Defrag software you choose (I like default windows defrag), let it run until you get a message that it has completed. It can take a few hours depending how bad it is.

P.S What OS are you using ?
 
i have a hp pavilian elite =/ idk what os means but ya i think that what you wanted to know. i did defrag but sometime like it just stops and i think it doesnt finish it just restarts it self =/

if you're gettin the BSOD ur CPU could be under a lot of load...
u can't overclock an OEM so hmmm...
very weird.. link us to ur computer..
 
You need to record the message that the BSOD gives (as in write it on a piece of paper). The BSOD screen will tell you what caused it.
 
well im defraging right now but i just left it and i went to play tf2 for a bit but when i got off it just stopped idk if it's done or not it just says do you want to defrag.
 
When you defrag, it first "scans" your drive. It plans out how it should defrag certain parts and analyzes the drive.
You have to press "do you want to defrag" to start defragging. ;)
 
it says defraging hard disc but idk when its done it just doesnt say it it goes back to the same thing before i clicked start
 
i do but i doesnt say defragging it goes to the start screen of the defragging process
 
As you install, delete, and obtain more files on your computer, the information on these files is kept stored. This information is randomly stored, thus separating each bit of information. When this happens, the file is called a "fragmented" file. By defragging your computer, you are taking the fragmented files and organizing them together. When a file is fragmented, it could take your computer 1 second to an entire day looking for the file.

As said by Toasteddude write down or take a picture of the BSOD and post it up here so we can help you further. CPU overload is often the case with the BSOD, because the BSOD was originally created to keep a corrupted file or partition on a computer from causing further damage. Definitely post your system specs, and the BSOD up here asap so we can help your problem ;]
