defrag
hi all i have a dimension 2400 and it wont let me defrag ive tried every thing cleaned files and about to go nuts any ideas please thx beckie
- Please confirm that this is the drive that originally shipped with the system and that you have not reinstalled XP. The first thing I would try is to boot into safe mode and try it again. Sometimes badly fragmented drives just won't start properly.
