I'm looking at about 4 hours of disk defragmentation.

The defrag program hasn't timed out or anything, so I know it's still working. It's just goddamn annoying.

OKAY you can have +1, too. But it'll be because you're tolerating a 4 hour defrag. I always hated those things.

Yeah, I haven't done it since I got the computer (4 months ago)... and now it's biting me in the ass.

It's a Gateway, running 64 bit Vista (ew, I know), 4 gigs DDR2 RAM, 4ghz quad core processor.

I'm just having to sort through all this software that I installed on it right after I got it. It's literally defragmenting everything that's on my hard drive.

Dear god...even with 4GB RAM & a 4GHz QC that's WAY long. How much stuff do you have on your HDD? PORN?!

You better be running some big ass fans or water cooling.

lol, no porn. My internal HD is as full as it can be to allow defrag. I need to start uninstalling and deleting shit.

Thought that, but gave you the benefit of the doubt.  Seemed a bit fishy to go to 4ghz with a Gateway as your base system.
