I think you will find that the Beta version of Diskeeper 10 for Vista was
only designed for use with 5381 and 5384 according to Diskeeper's website.

Yes I had hoped that it might work and/or they'd issue an update, but that
isn't going to happen according to an email I got from them.
I use DK 10 Pro on my XP's and I can always defrag my Vista partition from
there.
The built in one seems to me to be just as slow as XP's and has no visual
interface to view progress, which makes it worse IMHO.

I attempted the install until I noticed the build numbers
Used Vista one and didn't like the non visual aspect either. Could take
several minutes or hours. I would also prefer at least visual if we can't use
a 3rd party one.
