In the utilities the disk clean up does not work this is the second time. The first time We had to reformate the hard drive is this necessary?

Try the following web sites for troubleshooting suggestions:

Visit http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp tweaks.htm and scroll
down to Line #48. In the right-hand window, click on
"Disk Cleanup - Compress Old Files Freezes"

Simply click on Kelly's fix, download the registry fix, then run it.
(Note: Disable your antivirus program before running the repair script)
