It may be the page file and the MFT, Master File Table, that are not being defragmented. I use Diskeeper and the only way it can defrag the page file and the MFT is to do it on a reboot.

Thanks, no Ben. Still searching and I came across this which I knew, and is of no help: "Win XP users, Microsoft jettisoned the venerable ScanDisk for you guys. You can either use CHKDSK, which is even older, or use Microsoft's Error Checking feature. Access this feature by doing the following: In Windows Explorer, right-click the drive you want to check, and select Properties from the context menu. Now select the Tools tab. Under Error Checking, click "Check Now." If you want the scan to check the disk sectors or attempt to make repairs, select those options and click Start. Close Windows Explorer when you're done." All I can find is HOW to do it, which of course anyone knows. Nothing on how to see the results! I tried chkdsk and it closes before I can read the results! On another subject, every time I try and defrag my C: partition EVEN IN SAFE MODE it always says "some files could not be defragmented" or something like that. I open the "view report" button and nothing is there for "files that did not defragment"! So, what's not being defragmented?? -Clint God Bless Us All Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ben Moore" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi Clint, I sure can't find it. Have any luck? All I've ever seen is the on-screen message that you see when the program completes the scan. Ben ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
