One week with Vista and I've got a long list of problems. The most annoying
is Indexing - I have spent a great deal of time trying to get the function to
work properly. Personally I cannot see the point, I was very happy with the
simple search facility in XP. Anyway here goes - as part of the diagnostic
process I checked out Windows Vista Community > Finding & Organizing Files >
Indexing Bug ???? Although the problem isn't the same, some of the ideas were
helpful. I have tried many of the suggestions contained in the thread to
resolve my perceived problems and have now realised that the Indexing is
Extremely Slow on my machine (Sony Vaio VGN-G118GN with 1.33GHz processor).
My last attempt to get indexing working for me was to restore it to its
original settings this morning at 8am, it is now 4pm the machine has been
running all day and the number of items indexed has reached the grand total
of 6,143. At this rate it will take another year at least before it has
completed the task. Please help.
