415546 2005-12-24 17:13:00 Hi,

Can anybody help me with the following problem?
I want to defragment a desktop pc running on Win 2000 SP4 wich has 2 partitions. The thing is both disk have more than 50% free space (this I am certain). When I press the analyse button, the indicator also says there is more than 50% free space. Now comes the catch: The color-indicator shows almost my entire partition is full with fragmented files (almost the entire indication bar is red). When I start the defragmentation process, it runs for about 2 hours and when it is finished, and I do another analyse, the result is the same as before...

Does anybody know what is happening to this PC???

btw this is not the first pc I defragment, so it's not that I don't know what is happening, I just don't recognise this problem....


Thanx in advance!!!!!!

415548 2005-12-24 19:22:00 thanx for the idea, but this I cannot do, because te PC is installed on a dredge. The problem is also that I need this computer working all the time, so moving it off of the ship is very difficult....


hope you guys (and girls) come up with some other gameplan ;)

Thanx
