    Defragmentation make me lose space on my disk.

    Hey, im new here hope you can help me im really lost and my problem is pretty
    big.

    So here it is,

    Each time I do a defragmentation with the Windows Vista application, I lose
    3Go !!! Thats not normal.

    I've tryed with another program and it works pretty well, but I can't regain
    the space I lost.

    My computer is a Laptop, it is brand new.

    Dell Inspiron 6400
    120Go hard disk
    2Go Ram
    Dual core 1.73 Ghz
    Nvidia GeForce 7300

    HELP!

    i also have the same problem i also have a brand new dell e1505 and i lost 9
    gigs of space. I did pc restore and i got my memory back ill probably use
    third party applications to do my defragging. Does anyone know why windows
    vista is doing this?????
