Defragmenting

Jul 18, 2004 6:07AM PDT

When i defragment my drive, it finishes just fine then i analize it and it says that it needs to be defragmented again. Is there a way i can just defrag it completely in one full swoop.

Don't fall into the trap that some do. They may want a 100% defragmented drive and just one move of a mouse and there will be a fragment.

Try a weekly defragment and use the machine for other things.

Just noting that my neighbor's screen saver appears to be "Disk defragmenting..."
