|
|
I'd like to set up a weekly or twice weekly schedule for my computer to defrag itself while I'm at work.
I'm happy enough using the defragmenter provided with XP.
Should I never have other programs (like a bittorrent program) running while defragging?
I've looked around XP but can't seem to find the function for scheduling the defragger. Can it be done? |

| I like Raxco Perfect Disk more because it will defrag multiple drives at one time and has "Smart Placement". |
