Thanks. I've been running MP1.1.x stable on W7 (both server and client) for some time now.

Hmm, not sure why ntfs does that. There are some paid or trial defragging software that will move files to the beginning or the end of the drive according to the options you specify. I would defrag the drive using an offline defrag, meaning booting from the cd-rom drive or a usb drive and then defragging the hard drive. Just my two cents.

Thinking of upgrading my HTPC which is currently running Vista x86 to Windows 7. Can't decide whether I should go with x86 or x64 version of Windows 7.
MP is a 32-bit application, so will it run better on a 32-bit OS? Why can't I compile MP as a 64-bit application myself using VS2008?
