After installing Vista RC1 x86 and x64 I performed a disk defragmentation on
x86 & x64. After this was done I booted back into Windows x64 to run
Diskeeper 10 on both partitions, there were very few fragments left, each
partition was done in about 5 minutes. With beta 2 x86 & x64 very few
fragments were eliminated by the built-in program which ran for a long time
and did nothing.

How about taking the safety labels off everything, and let the
stupidity-problem solve itself?

I wonder if Raxco's PerfectDisk v8 (due out this month) will support
Vista?

Thanks, downloaded the beta, installed as recommended via the
Administrator's account. Installs until it hits starting Diskeeper services,
errors with basically check permissions to start. Only option is retry or
cancel, when canceled it rolls back the install.

Any suggestions? Vista is RC1
