hi,,, vista has an auto defrag,,, it runs continuasly in the backgroung when your machine is in idol or not doing anything,,,, but i also run a program called auslogics disc defrag which is fast and thorough,,, here's a link to it,,,, good luck

hi,,, good to here its defraging,,, as for vista defrag, i dont think you can run it like xp,,, on mine it just says your disc dose not need to de defraged at this time,,, i think this is because its allways defraging in the background,,, it also will not show a status bar across the bottom with your used space etc, like xp,,,,, you can get this info through command prompt but i forgot how,,,,, good luck

hi,, me again,, i found this site about it,,, have a read,,,
