Seems to work well for me. I remember reading on another forum to disable the pagefile and reboot before defragging a one drive computer anyway... stops those damn greenies on the defrag display from getting in the way Disabling hibernate mode is a good idea too as that is another greenie
Is it really? I thought that was only the page file that was the 2 greenies?
