You don't need to, Vista defragments automatically.

Hi,

Defrag is done automatically by Vista and you cannot review the results.
IMO, it does OK, but I use and recommend PerfectDisk 2008 Professional. It
has the user interface we were all accustom to and has many options to suite
your needs.

Is your computer system ready for Vista?

You could google for automatic defragmenters and try out the demo
version and decide what works for you.

The vista defrag has no GUI, and offers little control over the process.
Check out a good third party automatic defragmenter with a proper GUI
and comprehensive controls and defrag modes. You get the best of both
worlds- automatic defrag as well as comprehensive control. Far better
than the old manual/scheduled defrag in terms of resource usage and with
great performance too.

Google for 'fully automatic defragmenter' ....
