OK, I'll check with Seagate, Thanks... visit: http://www.chinaadviser.com

HMmmm... it's a 10,000 rpm, high speed drive. It came from the factory with a lowlevel format, and operated, win 98, with the full 18 gigs in one partiton... with one drive letter, C, until I formatted it... Regards... visit: http://www.chinaadviser.com

Greetings... I've had to format my Seagate 18 gig SCSI HD. I have 2 ways to reinstall the operating system, either with the SCSI utility that came with the SCSI adapter card or with, bootdisk, fdisk. Regardless which utility that I use, the HD always partitons to an 8 gig primary partiton...

Maybe this suggestion will help to beat the ISP timeout... I went through 5 major national ISP's last year, before I reached the conclusion that they don't need me and really don't care about my needs. The major ISP's have the experience and the expertise do do as they please with their accounts...

OK... I ran scandisk from dos about 6 weeks ago when I installed a new main board, cpuand HD, but I just ran it again for good measure, took an hour and 50 mins. No bad clusters. But, my problem is that I have a unidentified program writing to the HD, so defrag keeps restarting after 1%. I can...

Greetings, tatektips...HMmm, So, what do you mean by hangs up? Screen freeze and have to reboot? or it just keeps running without ever gettings it done starting over and over again? Did you try booting to safe mode and running the utilities from there? as SEFASKDFC said above... That worked...

OK, I'll have a go at it! Thanks... visit: http://www.chinaadviser.com

Huh?... let's see, let me read this over a little... These instructins are for after the utility is downloaded and installed, right? Yea, I've got 512 megs of mem. I'm going to have to go and download it to understand everything. I get the renaming, but, I don't get why? There is a defrag.exe...

OK, I did some checking on DiskKeeper. The best price is at the Nerds.com $41.16 + shipping Also found this information, It's an excellent and powerful program, but warned not to use it on FAT32 HD's Also, if one downloads the trial version and then buys and downloads the full version. The...

Grin!... This makes me feel good to! Regards, Robert visit: http://www.chinaadviser.com

Matt, Perhaps you are correct about the number of times I should defrag... But on the other hand... I work on this PC 10 to 12 hrs a day 6 days a week, I build websites and upload many megabytes of data daily. incluaing a huge # of graphics and binary files. I also do a huge amount of research...

Although you shouldn't use Task Scheduler to run a thorough ScanDisk or Defrag, you can use it for a reminder. Just write yourself a note with Notepad or Wordpad and save it, being sure to name it. You can save it were ever you wish, just remember where. Then, in Task Scheduler, instead of...

OK, the HD defragged... in safe mode no problems! It took 20 minutes, I haven't defraged for 2 weeks. I usually defrag at end of each 10 hr. shift 6 days a week, but haven't been able to! I'm sure that it's a program on EIDE C: drive writing to the HD, because my D: drive is a seagate SCSI...

OK, thanks, Shmoes... The lowlevel process tool is on the win98 disk? I guess I could search the disk... It's not in tweak UI is it? Not long ago, I saw a freeware download for a utility to locate hidden programs on the HD, but I said to myself...naw, I don't need that, Now I'm doing a search...

Good idea Murray! that'll stop everything! Never thought of that, I'm lazy and don't want to start uninstalling programs til I find which it is... Regards, Robert visit: http://www.chinaadviser.com
