25 Most Popular Windows Tips: The Best Explained and Worst Debunked

  Disk defrag programs  have been around since the dawn of hard drives. They actually made a difference IN THE BEGINNING. I have seen NO PROOF (except for defrag program sellers "facts") that they make much difference if at all these days. And I have had defrag programs cause PROBLEMS with my drive since XP came out.

Just say no to defrag.

Creative Finally Releases Vista Functional X-Fi Soundcard Drivers

    Geez. This is a major investment for just a driver update. It has to load the driver on Vista on its own safe-mode type boot up. So I had to reboot two times and in order to get the audio console to run, shut the computer down then restart. Finally every time I reboot, I am getting a XFIhelper error (which I am sure I can fix easily enough- but still!). There is still no nicely crafted interface, just a tabbed box. Was this ready for prime time? I think not.
