I'd like to ask you a couple of questions. First, what were you using to defragment your drive prior to trying Defraggler? Second, how many times have you run Defraggler since you installed it? If you have used the Windows defragmenter all along, then switched to Defraggler, you are not going to get a perfect result the very first time you run it. Windows has one way of putting your files in order, Defraggler has another. I have found that if you switch from one defragment program to another, the new one needs some time to reorder your files to it's liking. A single pass is usually not enough to do this.
And try not to switch back and forth between two different defragmenters, otherwise you will just keep jumbling up your files over and over again. Find one you like and stick with it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REPLY: I am CompTia A+ certified, Network+ trained and VERY familiar with what you're talking about. I did not make the mistakes you mention. I gave Defraggler ample opportunity to do as it pleased. Amongst other pursuits on my primary PC, I gave Defraggler an entire day, with many passes effected on the alternate PC in question. Defraggler never brought the framentation level below 27% .There aren't any issues with this clean, fully updated installation of Vista Home Premium x64. The system is conflict free and well protected from viruses, malware and spyware.
