Why hard drive is active when it appears nothing is going on

by wjandy . Updated 15 years, 11 months ago

Two issues that are a bit annoying:
1. The computer is idle, there is no traffic indicating on the moden but the computer all of a sudden indicates that the hard driver is doing something. The sound, if magnified, is like a team of horses galloping.

2. There are times when the modem indicates there is down or upload activity when nothing is scheduled to be running.

Is there any kind of utility available that will monitor uninitiated activity and display what is going on?

Thanks

WJA
