Windows claims that you'll never need to defrag for vista, but that's bullshit. If I don't defrag every 2 months my computer will slow the fuck down whenever I try to open any folder or load a program up.

Diskeeper. Install it then forget it. No need to worry about defragmentation.

it's not the defrag that helped with the whirring, it is the fact that data was moved from some bad sectors, so the bad sectors are no longer accessed. back up your shit

wtf seriously? Is there something I need to do to get it to start defragging automatically? Or has my computer been defragging itself this whole time without me knowing?

or is there something wrong with my copy? T.T (it's a legit copy, one of the few non-pirated things I have on here)

Well I dont know what version you have but I suspect it's included in all versions it has most likely been defragging all along yes.

Im not on my vista comp right now but you can probably find it at my computer-> properties, or clicking properties on one of your harddisks, or just finding it through help I dont know.

I am on a Mac, and I don't need to do a Disk Defrag. Only thing I need to do once in a while is a Permissions check, and that does not take long (5mins max).
