  1. I guess not doing maintenance tasks on time can lead to fewer options when things get out of hand. I think a diskcleanup and defragmentation must be done regularly bfore the HD space starts running out. But i guess most pple postpone it as it takes a long time as also the botheration of doing it manually. An automatic defragger wud help in such cases as it can be set to do the job..and faster too. Also a good registry cleaner will help to clean up crap that settles back and slows down things even more. Needless to say thorough spyware scans too.
  2. Hi ms1033, Are you running low on disk space? if so, it would be a good idea to run a disk cleanup first bfore you defrag, did you defrag in safe mode? If some program was running while the defragmenter worked its possible it got interrupted. Also if your drive tends to get fragmented fast ( i agree with you when u say the sheer number of updates and patches we download nowadays can contribute to this) it would be good to defrag more often, or you can set some automatic tool on the job. Insufficient memory can be another reason. If you boot is slow, you cud try deleting pretetch. http://www.tw
