If it is a SMART drive run a SMART utility and see what it shows up. How to know if it is SMART? Now that is the question! But a visit to the manufacturers site may help BTW: is it still under warranty? Some drives may be on 3 years warranty and some even 5 years. Now that is confidence in a product |

Run msconfig and stop all tray applications and most of the services except the defragger and storage driver. Restart after the msconfig is finished. Then try defragging. -- Lester Stiefel In Romans 1 there are qualities of Unregenerate man listed which describe him in the last days. Is your quality found on this list?? |

defragmenting crashes to blue screen
I already updated the Intel accelerator. Didn't help. Called Dell. The
machine is just out of warranty. They weren't much help. Ran chkdsk crashed to blue screen during stage 4 (verifying file data. I think I have something wrong with the hard drive or corrupted Windows files???

defragmenting crashes to blue screen
I ran defrag in safe mode and it still crashed to a blue screen. The hard
disc is a Maxtor 80GB in a Dell Dimension 4400. I try your other suggestion. "Gerry Cornell" wrote: What is the make and model of the hard disk? Just because the computer is out of warranty it does not follows that all components are! Try HD Tune (freeware). Download and run it and see what it turns up. http://www.hdtune.com/ Select the Info tabs and place the cursor on C:\ under Drive letter and then double click the two page icon ( copy to Clipboard ) and copy into a further message. Select the Health tab and then double click the two page icon ( copy to Clipboard ) and copy into a further message. ~~~~~~ Hope this helps.

defragmenting crashes to blue screen
I reinstalled (repaired) Windows and went through the several steps of
Windows update. This seems to have solved the problem. Must have been some corrupted files. The computer is not running very fast, but at least it is running "Doctordan" wrote: when I try to defragment the hard drive it crashes half way through. Blue screen.

defragmenting crashes to blue screen
After completing the reinstall of Windows, I don't have any more errors in
event viewer. "Gerry Cornell" wrote: Look in the System and Application logs of Event Viewer and post copies of Warning and Error Reports. You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Administrative Tools, Event Viewer. When researching the meaning of the error, information regarding Event ID, Source and Description are important. HOW TO: View and Manage Event Logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/default...&Product=winxp A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a button resembling two pages. Double click the button and close Event Viewer. Now start your message(email) and do a paste into the body of the message. This will paste the info from the Event Viewer Error Report complete with links into the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from Event Viewer. Are there any yellow question marks in Device Manager? Right click on the My Computer icon on your Desktop and select Properties. Hardware, Device Manager. If yes what is the Device Error code? -- Hope this helps. Gerry ~~~~ FCA Stourport, England Enquire, plan and execute ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Doctordan" wrote in message ...
