Vista - hard drive activity at Log On screen

hard drive activity at Log On screen

When I turn on my computer and let it boot and let it get to the Log On
screen I notice that even after it's been sitting at the Log On screen for a
few minutes there is still hard drive activity. Is that indexing going on?
(I'm using vista home premium 64 - I have not made an changes to the default
for search indexing which I assume is on.)

Caching, Superfetch, Services and programs booting up, indexing... Take your
pick. ;-) The nice thing is, you do not have to wait for all this to finish
before you can log on.

I don't quite understand your issue here. From the moment you power on
your system there's harddrive activity, even in sleep mode or when the
system idles (in your case you leave it at the log on screen)
