As far as I am aware, in Vista, you can't select specific drives to defrag. It's all or nothing. Do note that Vista uses a type of automatic defrag. That said, the automatic defrag in Vista is not as good as some of the third party solutions. The commercial defragmenters offer more control and features than the Vista defragger. Generally, automatic defrag is better than older manual or scheduled defragging since defragging takes place in the background without user intervention. Files are maintained in an optimal condition while the user can continue to work on the PC as usual.

Disc defrag won't finish on windows xp?
The very best way to run defrag is to startup your PC in Safe Mode and then run the defrag. Safe Mode is available by rebooting your PC and start tapping your F8 key (I tap it about once a second) until a menu comes up asking how you want to startup. Select the Safe Mode option and enter. ... if you're in the normal mode close all applications that are running then defrag but still the best way is "to run defrag is to startup your PC in Safe Mode..."
Can you defrag your hard drives while still using your PC?
With Windows XP if any programs (even those running in the background) or the screensaver interrupts the defrag, it will restart/hang. In Vista, the defrag is designed to defrag at a certain schedule in low priorty in the background. In order to defrag and use the PC at the same time you need to use an automatic defragmenter like Diskeeper which runs in the background in invisitasking mode and defrags silently without conflicting with other programs.
Why does your OS Windows 98SE get stuck at 2 on defrag and stay there without completing the defrag and how can you get it to complete the defrag?
Run ScanDisk first. If you have disk errors, Defrag will not run. If ScanDisk will not run, install Norton System Works. Run Norton WinDoc, let it repair any Windows errors. Next, run Norton's Disk Doctor (Norton's version of ScanDisk). Once all that runs, reboot your system, run Windows ScanDisk and then Defrag. Always reboot after you run your maintenance programs. Also, make sure you dump your cache (Temporary Internet, Temp, Recent, History & Cookies) before starting your maintenance programs. I struggled with that problem for a long time. I found out that the defragmenter that comes with Windows 98 is not worth the disk space it takes up. However, with Windows ME, the problems had been fixed. So, the best solution I found is to replace the 98 defrag with the ME defrag. This article explains how to do it: http://aroundcny.com/technofile/texts/tec060902.html It works and you'll be amazed at the difference.
How do you get rid of the fragmented files that stay after you run disk defrag?
A defrag program sometimes skips the files that contain like 2-4 fragments so it won't need to make space for that file because it's to large. Some programs have the option to defrag to defrag every file without skipping one.
What happens when you do something bad to an computer?
