First is that I let my freind use my comp, for a school project he needed to do, since his was getting fixed. it was a project for some video class, so he needed to burn a video dvd. I told him that my windows dvd maker did not work, and he said it was alright cause he had Nero 7.

Well he ended up having a burnt copy of Nero 7, and it wouldn't instal, etc. he ended up going somewhere else. ANways, I went to remove the stuff of nero 7 that actually did get installed, and upon going to program files and deleting the nero folder, it said I needed permission! The only buttons were "try again", and "cancel"\

So I started deleting each subfolder, one by one, until I got to the last remaining one called "nero Backitup"

This is the folder that Winodws will not let me delete for some reason. Is there any way to get rid of this stupid folder?

The other thing is that when I go to do a defragment of my HDD, after 2 hours it is still going!!!! on win Xp with my 80GB HDD, it took almost less than 20 min, and that is with an inferior processor too!!

Now I got a core 2 duo 2.4ghz, and a 300Gb HDD. I always just cancel it, cause I figure it will never finish. How long is it supposed to take on Vista?
