System interrupt is using 100% of my processor all the time. I googled the issue and it seems to be a hardware driver related issue. I downloaded Windows Performance Analyzer (Xperf) and ran it to look for what was exactly causing the problem, it seems to be ataport.sys, but I'm not sure exactly what im looking at. Anyhelp would be appreciated. If anyone is willing I can send my Windows performance recorder file so you can take a look.

I still have not come to a resolution on this problem. Here is a link to a Xperf/windows performance analyzer trace file if anyone can offer some assistance it would be much appreciated.

It has been 36 hours since the problem has occurred so I think it is fixed.

First off my problem (high CPU usage from System interrupts) occurred only when there was a high amount of disc usage, such as when copying files, opening a program or running a program that accesses the disk a lot when running, like a virus scan.

Here is what I did, though I am not sure exactly which fixed the problem.

I downloaded and ran Auslogics Registry cleaner, Auslogics Disk defragmenter, and Auslogics Registry Defragmenter. When running the Disk defragmenter, I selected the option to move system files to the front of the disc and ran the defrag and optimizer, as opposed to solely the defrag.

Then I ran Chkdsk using the following Administrator command prompt command: Chkdsk /f /r :C

After words, I downloaded Seatools from Seagate, and ran the Fix All long option on my hard drive.
