Hi everyones...thanks to read. I'm running Win98SE but will upgrade soon
toward Win2000pro or XPpro. Actually, i have two commands i use to simplify
the Scandisk (named Checkdisk in 2000 and XP i think?) and the Disk
Defragmenter:

scandskw /silent /n /allfixeddisks
defrag /all /noprompt

With theese commands, Scandisk or Checkdisk open and start automatically,
doing their work on all the fixed drives(the four partitions on my hard
drive, in this case) without user prompt and after all the drives have been
scanned or defragged, they exit automatically. Do you know if the
Defragmenter and the Checkdisk programs in 2000/XP have such options to use
them in command line mode like i do in Win98? TIA
