Everyone has the same problem. Dean is right, but I would like to throw in a
little twist. Windows ME has the best and fastest defrag program around and
you can download it and run it from your desk top on any Windows I use it on
my Win 98SE and 2000. Get it from Microsoft home. Good luck Gary

Richard,

When I had this same problem, what I did was to turn off any screen saver,
then hit ctrl>alt>delete, and start shutting down applications until the
only thing left on the list is "Explorer." Then the disk defragmenter would
work properly. This helped me after I added a slave HDD.

Good Luck.... Dean Kiley
