Hey. I use diskeeper to defrag my computer but when i defrag my computer restarts on its own. When i reanalyze it, the hd was barely defragged. I turned off all programs using enditall and it still wont defrag. Safe mode won't help because diskeeper only runs in normal mode. It wont even let me do boot up defrag! Can someone help me?
 
reinstalling windows? if i do where do i put my stuff hah. I have about 100 gigs of data =)
 
try reinstalling diskeeper before installing windows.

and for future installs, i'd recommend making a separate partition for important data...that way you can install windows without having to worry about losing any.
 
this happens even if i use the windows defragment after i uninstalled diskeeper and it shouldnt be window's fault. on my last computer that i owned i had the same problem but i didn't know how to fix it.
 
try downloaing a free trial of perfect disc...see if it's an app issue
 
before defragging try a scan with spybot. do a disk clean. boot to recovery console and try a chkdsk /r. if all goes smoothly then do your defrag.
 
Virus - sorry, i dont think so, try Perfect disk as dealer suggests.

The MS Defrag tool is pretty weak, which is why your defrag loks so poor. Norton Utilities also has one, but Norton products are a bit flakey and come with lots of unnecessary additions you may not want.

Doing a chkdsk before a defrag is a good idea though, but it wont make the built in windows one perform any better.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
