Hi there all comments would be appreciated. using WXP Pro with MS Office
2003. Over the past few weeks I have found myself defragging each day.
sometimes more than once. I have 3 partitions set to 19gb but only using
one. Loading a programme is pretty good following defrag but at 4.30 pm
ish can take ages to load, with much trashing of my HD, when it has
finally succeeded it frequently refuses to unload unless I use task
manager to clear it from the screen. There have been a few times it has
hung and refused to clear the screen leaving me with just shutting down.
Whilst typing in this message and looking at my screen copies of the defrag
screen it went 'hung' and would not shutdown. I allowed it to send a
report to Microsoft. I have used the detect and repair option in the office
application and it comes through as 'set up complete' which I take as its
finished and repaired files as needed. When defrag has finished I appear
to have more white space than I started with but in a different place and
the green section has been moved to a different place in the white area.
there still appears to be lots of white lines about. any advice would be
appreciated.
