Pam,
Right click on My Computer, select open from dropdown menu and you will see
what drive is assigned  "F"
When you know that you can decide how to deal with defragging it.
HTH,

Subject: [PCBUILD] "F" drive

I have an HP Pavilion dv2125 notebook pc running Windows XP SP2 with an AMD 
Turion 64x2, 1.6 GHz, 1 gig RAM, NVidia GeForce 6150 graphics.  It's been 
getting slower and slower.  I have Diskeeper and it showed that the "F" 
drive was horribly fragmented and could affect the system performance.   I 
have tried and tried to defragment it and it still shows it is dangerously 
fragmented, still with  425 fragmented files.  And the system performance is

still getting worse.  I don't know what the F drive is used for or why there

is so much in it that is fragmented.  But that's the only thing I can figure

out that is hurting performance.  I do all the maintenance things regularly,

but apparently they only take care of the C drive?

What is this drive and how do I clean it up?  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Pam
