Baselining




The reason why I should baseline is to make sure that there is no malicious or corrupt hardware tampering with the efficiency of how my computer runs.

I think the CPU runs normally. It's very steady when I'm not running processes. Memory is stays steady the whole time at 25%.


The hard drive spikes sometimes, but goes right back to normal at 0 KB/sec.

Printer issue

When I right clicked on the XPS printer icon in Printers, there was a message box when I clicked on properties that said, I should restart the system or the printer spooling. It was a weird experience, because when I printed a notepad with my name on it, a message box said printing 1 ... The printer didn't print anything that I noticed though.
