That was a good surmise Steve. I've used Diskeeper for years so wasn't
familiar with that part of it.

Thanks again Rock. I recently played with the demo version on 98 box at
werk so I was aware of the possibility. It nags every few days, I don't
use it and haven't had the chance to remove it yet, and no pressing need
as it just nags at startup every few days then stays out of the way. No
big deal, eh?

system restore would be easiest.

But..you can get all files from the XP CD (probably in cab files which
you have to extract)..they're all there. All files starting with dfrg*
and defrag*

The files in particular are:

dfrgui.dll
dfrgsnap.dll
dfrgres.dll
dfrgntf.exe
dfrgfat.exe
dfrg.msc
dfrg.inf
defragp.chm
defrag.hlp
defrag.exe

put all those in a folder, then right click the dfrg.inf and install.



This re-installs the windows defragger.

One always needs the disk for the OS they want to continue to use. Get
one.
