Hi o/

Vista 64 Sp1
Athlon x2 'Black Edition' 5000+ @ 3.2ghz
4Gb Geil Ultra RAM
BFG 8800 GTX OC2
2x Western Digital SATA HDD's in RAID

First a little background, I've been having multiple issues with shutting down and restarting the computer recently. Even after a clean shutdown and a cold boot the computer sometimes decides to run scandisk on startup. I'm slightly concerned that Vista might not be liking my RAID HDD config. I've only just made the switch to Vista from XP after Sp1 came out. Having said I haven't had this problem for the month or so I've had vista installed so it's a recent thing...

The problem...

Whenever I delete/move/copy a file, the little file transfer window comes up on screen. Problem is when its finished its task it stays there and doesn't disappear. The only way to get rid of the file copy/move/delete windows is to end the task using task manager. Doing this reboots explorer which doesn't take long but its somewhat annoying. The following is a .jpg showing the problem: http://www.uploadit.org/my.php?image=http://premium1.uploadit.org/gobrun//all.jpg

Another slight niggle which I believe is an extension of this problem occurs when I try to create a new folder, I finish inputting the new folder name and press enter and the explorer window freezes up. Again the only way to get out of this is by ending the task through task manager. Again, the following picture shows an example of the problem: http://www.uploadit.org/my.php?image=http://premium1.uploadit.org/gobrun//rename.jpg

Anyone have this problem and know of a fix? Perhaps there is a way to tell vista to not bring up the little file transfer boxes every time you move/copy/delete something, ie, it just does it in the background?

Thanks in advance!

Just came across this thread: thread Is this the same problem I've been having?
