| Description: |
| |
| Disk Defrag is a utility whose purpose is to realign the
"fragments" on your hard drive to allow your machine to access them
properly and quickly. What does this mean for you? A significantly
faster computer! |

| Instructions |
| |
| 1 |
To Open:
In Windows XP, Goto Start->All

Utilities- >Disk
Defragmenter |
|
| 2 |
Select
desired drive to defragment (I recommend you do each one) as
shown below
|
|
| 3 |
Click
Analize. A dialogue box will appear letting you know how fragmented
your drive is. If its moderately fragmented or greater, I recommend
you go ahead and Defragment.
|
|
| 4 |
If
you need to defragment the drive, click Defragment. This process
can take a while if its bad or the drive is large (2+ hours).
If you do it often, the time it takes to correct its problems
will take much less time.
