Don't waste any more time going to a web site that is clearly giving
you false readings.

Every defrag program has its own way of defining fragmentation. Therefore
you are guaranteed to always have different results from different apps.

Try Diskeeper from Disckeepr.com

It's not that expensive and Microsoft included a stripped down version when
it released windows XP. I've been using it for years now and can say that
it's an excellent program.

Hi everybody,
From nature i am against using third party SW.
The question is here more...if Vista tells that there is no need for
defragmentation is this true?

I agree that there is no logic within it:
-no view about the progress as in previous versions
-after performing the defragmentation (very long time, even if there are no
other activities) and starting it immediately again theere is the same
sympton.

It is my believe that this should be clarified first by the experts and once
that is know i will may be use third parts SW.

Regards
Huib

System Mechanic Pro 7 has places to defrag boot setup, memory, all sorts of
things, upon startup or manually. I couldn't get thru a day without using it,
when I see how easily I get low memory messages, registry errors, junk files
needing deletion. I'm sure other programs might be almost as good - and as
easy to use - but the full feature anti virus/system care programs are
invalueable. NOT Norton or Mcafee, though (for me, at least.) And my
computers last for years until I give them away, still working, and with the
suggestion to get their own management software to KEEP them running
well.Only my last desk one was a pooper at the end - motherboard going,though.

Hi

You should try and invest in Diskeeper. It's much more powerfull than the
windows version, and does a better job at it.

When MS lunched XP, the version of defrag that came shipped with XP was a
stripped down version of Diskeeper. I read this in t he book " Windows XP
Inside Out. By MS press".

Do yourself a favour and purchase Diskeeper pro.
