Hi,
There is another bug with Vista with video streaming, it sets the video streaming to near 100% whether you are using it or not.

>Yesterday, I downloaded the MS Process Monitor, and noticed alot of activity occuring when I open the Explorer that appear to have nothing with the Explorer.

>>Do you have a lot of video or avi files? I've heard of problems with avi and video files with Vista. Other than that typically hanging is a result of incompatible hardware or memory.

>>>It is my development machine, and hangs for 30 ro 120 seconds everytime it accesses the file system. I probably spend 1/4 to 1/3 of my day waiting for it. I backed up my data to my laptop over the weekend (and still am). So far it has taken 5 days to copy 40 to 50 gigs. This problem is killing my productive and frustrating to no ends.
