Hi Dave,

Use task manager to see if there are any programmes running in the background 
(control + Alt  + delete).  Close all unnecessary active tasks.

Kam

  Subject: [OM] OT Windows 98 Defrag Problems


  Perhaps some of you computer techies can help us with a problem.  We are 
  running Windows 98 2nd Edition on AMD K6 on a 6GB hard drive.  All has been 
  well with defragmentation until last night.  The system will not Check for 
  Errrors and when one attempts to start the Defrag it will begin with Checking 
  for Errors, do 2% and then go back to 0, doing this over and over.  We set 
  the computer to Defrag overnight, it never got past the point of Check for 
  Errors to begin Defraging. 

  We use a Cable modem and have Napster on the computer.  There does not appear 
  to be any problem with the operation of the computer other than that it will 
  not do Scan Disk, Check for Errors or Defrag. 

  Any thoughts?
