Vista very slow

It's likely defragmenting with the very poorly made defrag program that barely
works. It will stop eventually. It won't be the indexing of the computer, that
only takes a couple minutes max. One other thing that you could try is changing
the RAM configuration so that it runs in dual-channel, but that would only help
if your motherboard supports dual channel. It gives a huge boost in the system
rating for memory.

There is a 30 day trial of Diskeeper 10 Professional with Vista support
available. It's FAR better than Windows defrag.

I bought Diskeeper 9 for XP and I think I'll probably buy 10 too at
some point.

I am running Vista Beta 2 on a Gateway P4-2ghz computer with 768 megs of
RAM and it runs quite fast. Almost as fast as Windows XP.
