My internet connection stops when I defrag a disk!
This is like saying " My car won't move when I chain it to a tree"
Defrag is reading all files and folder useing recent history ,as a guide, to place data in the right place. Taking data fragments and placing them where they go. And rewriting the disk as it goes. Taking data. Writing it to the back of the drive. Placing fragments in their right spot and then taking the data it wrote to the back and placing it back at the front in IT'S right place. Setting everything in order as recently used. I am surprised you even get a completed defrag if you are surfing the net at the same time. Surfing the net is constantly changing the TIFs. Which should cause defrag to prompt a message that it can't continue until what every is accessing the drive is shut down. Even a solitare game should cause defrag to stop. While in defrag your whole harddrive,or partition that is being defraged,is being used to read,write and rewrite the data there. Running "System Monitor" during defrag should show a 100% usage. " wrote: I have this same problem in Win95, 98, 98SE I connect using dialup, but if I try to do a defrag or move a large amount of files from one folder to another the dialup connection stops. When the defrag finishes, the connection resumes as normal. It's obvious that the problem occurs whenever there is a lot of continuous disk activity but does anyone know what causes this and is there a workaround? TIA |
