I want to kwow what in the world I'm doing wrong when I TRY to do a disk defragment? I end task on everything except EXPLORE cuz I have McAfee and before it worked when I ended those programs, but now it gets to about 3% and just keeps on restarting.........back to 3%.........etc. I'm at wits end with this and want to do that procedure and cant.......scan disk takes forever, too! Can someone out there help me with this....I have the Windows ME......Thanks a million!

I had that problem all the time when I used Windows 98 and Windows ME.
Thanks so much for that info! It worked!!!!!! I clicked restart and then the F8 and a screen came up with the option of: Normal, something about reboot and Safe mode. So I just did the safe mode and started the defragmenter! What is the difference between the normal and safe mode? I know that while I was doing the defragmenter, my screen was all different and all the icons were bigger, color all off!!!!!!! Switched back to normal mode and everything was fine! I wonder why you cant do a defragmenter in the reg. mode?HUMMMMMMMMM?????????????? Anyways........thanks a bunch, I was begining to think I've lost my mind!? LOLOLOL Something so simple, too!
