Might help if you go to User CP and put in your system specs and check the box to show the specs.
Just to start off here... turn off any A/V or malware software and see if it stops.
Could be indexing running or some defrag.
Edit:
Kreij beat me to it on the indexing.
@OP--> Is it a fresh install or old install that has been running ok 'til now?

i think problem has been fixed by turning it off !
If you can wait for it to finish you might want to leave it on, the search feature in recent windows is really useful
There should even be a reduced speed mode option in the power settings menu
