Continuous Hard Drive Activity
Despite all nice ideas in here I just want to bring something up that could
cause this behaviour. RAM. If your memory is full, Windows will start paging inactive areas of the RAM onto the harddrive to free up some space in the ram modules, thus creating a lot of harddrive activity. I know that Vista got 8 times more (yes 8 times!) RAM requirement than it's predecessor Windows XP (min. 64mb), but 512 mb should still be enough to run Vista smoothly and without paging from what I've heard... Well, just wanted to bring it up, you never know  .-- /Robert "Kerry Lange" wrote: Since I installed Vista (32-bit) I seem to have continuous, 24/7 HDD activity. Does anyone know what process might be causing this?
