That's why I switched to Linux.
Mint KDE is a good place to start.
0% swap file usage
Everything runs in Ram

OH ye that is a great idea when you have a hardware problem switch to linux and not be able to play any game worth a crap! What is happening to the OP's rig is NOT the norm for Windows and switching to Linux is NOT the answer but thanks for playing.

The fact that the drive access stops when you unplug the CD-Rom drive suggest there could be a problem with the drive itself.
