Defragmenting drive
Either try running Defrag in Safe Mode and/or download and run ScanDefrag
v4.2a. This is a FREE utility, written by several well respected contributors to these News Groups and has been designed to run several original MS utilities through a 'filter' which eliminates the usual junk which stops Defrag (and Scandisk) from running properly in Normal Mode - as you are already experiencing g You can get ScanDefrag at either of the two sites below - and be sure to read the associated notes for setting it up: http://home.earthlink.net/~bblanton2...efrag/main.htm http://www.blueorbsoft.com/scandefrag/index.html HTH and good luck Mart "george lanzaro" wrote in message ...

Defragmenting drive
Disconnect from the internet, if you have a DSL or cable
connection then you are always recieving incoming info. This will change your drive contents. No need to disable anything or defrag in safe mode. Just lose the internet connection. -----Original Message----- When I attempt to defragment my C drive it appears to do so and then repeatedly comes up with the message "drive contents changed restartin.'
