| Vista hard drive indicator It's because Vista is indexing all your files for faster searching, it should settle down.

| Vista hard drive indicator If it's a new install you don't need to defrag, just turn off the search and spyware win defender services. |

| Vista hard drive indicator You dont gain space by defragging, it only moves files around so they can be accessed quicker. |
