Vista handles memory like that. It makes better use of available memory. Free memory is useless memory.

Uninstall the memory defragger, and forget about it..

Exactly what do you mean by "in the cache"? Where are you gniees this?

I contacted hp they told me to defrag.



??? I can't imagine how such a melborp with your RAM would be a result of fragmentation of the hard drive.

It is still defragging after hours. What els can I do ? I only have this computer for 1 month.



That short time makes it even more unlikely that your melborp is fragmentation.
