Scheduled Tasks

[Ryan]

I can't get scheduled tasks to preform disk defragment
and disk cleanup on XP. Worked fine on 98. What should
I try??
Thanks

Hi Ryan,

Have you set the Task Scheduler to "run as" under a passworded account?
Do other tasks run?

Go in safe mode. Turn off the screensaver and your anti-virus, then
defrag. Should work then.
