Author: The last view days I was wondering why my harddisks kept doing something when using Windows Vista.
When I visited some sites I found out that Windows Vista does a lot of things to keep itself fast.
Like auto defrag my harddisk, indexing al files to speed up searching and prefetching. (a way to extend the virtual memory)
I don’t think that my harddisk likes this very mucht, I wonder if my harddisks life will shorten because of this.
On many sites it says that leaving your pc on for a night will solve this problem. (Vista then will be ready indexing en prefetching e.g.) So I did… and it did not help.
I think these 3 “services” are running in a visual circle.
Vista defrags my Harddisk, Vista renews the file index and creates a new prefetch, and Vista defrags again……
Never ending story
So…….

Well…. Vista… I have it on my new Dell pc.
It looks great, but Windows ME also looked great.
Windows Vista like Windows ME is far from a workable product.
Like connection to my XP Shared printer. It just doesn’t work !
