SkyAnt 0 #1 October 28, 2003 I have not done a defrag on my home pc in over a year and when I tried to do it the other day it didnt work. What Am I forgetting to do in this process? Need help quick.

nacmacfeegle 0 #2 October 28, 2003 You will need to switch of all background applications, otherwise the defragger will restart everytime the disc is accessed. So get hold of 'enditall' (http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,4149,697,00.asp), and switch off your screensaver. Pop open a cool one, it could take a while......-------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

CrazyIvan 0 #3 October 28, 2003 A simple way to avoid that is to start your system in SAFE MODE and then run DEFRAG.__________________________________________ Blue Skies and May the Force be with you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
