Defrag popup annoyance
Win98 SE
192 MB RAM I use my computer frequently. So much in fact, that I think My computer is telling me to defrag my computer. I leave one program on overnight, and when I wake up to check on it, sure enough, defrag has popped up and frozen my computer. I hate when this happens, and I don't know how to stop it. Could anybody Help me? |
Start Programs Accessories System Tools Scheduled Tasks:
Select the Defrag scheduled task, and disable it or delete it. -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP Shell/User, A+ http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "Adam" wrote in message ...

OP: Have you tried running scandisk? This might reveal what's crashing Defrag. OTOH it might not....
