You must be a very lonely fella. Sadly, those meds don't seem to be helping you at all. Methinks a frontal lobotomy is the only option left for you. Please schedule an appointment for next Monday. They can have what's left of your shit-for-brains grey matter out through your left nostril in no time flat.

Aevin Posted December 3, 2007 Posted December 3, 2007 Re: Disk Defragment Can you make Vista's defrag. show the window were you could watch it do its thing like in Windows XP? Thanks Automatic defragmenters work in the background, depending on availability of free system resources, so a constant progress display may not always be available. Automatic defrag is quite useful/efficient compared to manual or scheduled defrags because it takes care of itself and needs no fiddling by the user. Whenever fragmentation increases due to file activity, the defragger will deal with it automatically during system idle. Vista's defragger is not 'truly' automatic I think, but a pseudo-automatic, yet it still does not offer much control or progress display. Third party automatic defraggers come with better controls, more options/features and the ability to view progress display at a given time. In these aspects, they are better than vista's defragger.
