The HD on my laptop sometimes starts spinning but won't stop unless IHDD's spin all the time from start up to shut down unless you have it set up
reboot.
I'm looking for some advice on how to identify the cause. I've run
services.msc to get a list of started items (I've listed them at the end
of
this post) and want to know what else I can do to see what might be going
on.
Thanks for any advice
Tom

in your power options to turn off the HDD after X minutes of idle time, or
the notebook goes into hibernation/standby.
Or do you mean that something is ACCESSING it all the time? If so, start
Task Manager and see what process is hogging the most CPU time. That is most
likely the culprit.
