28654 2001-12-26 11:07:00 Can you please help me. Why does my computer fail to carry out either the defragment or scan processes? A notice appears as follows: 'A fatal exception has occurred at 0028:D0000000 ----------'.
I am running 98SE
Thanks in advance

28655 2001-12-26 11:26:00 have you tried to run scandisk under DOS command line? try go 'start' => 'shut down' => 'restart in ms-dos mode' then in command prompt type 'scandisk' then press enter. Guest (0)
28656 2001-12-27 10:16:00 You should turn off all virus scan, firewall and other software that is likely to interfere with the scandisk or defrag. Guest (0)
28657 2001-12-28 11:31:00 I have a similar problem that seems to be resolved by disabling any screen saver or wallpaper. Guest (0)
