Ann, I use this .VBS from "Doug Knox" to defrag XP, and it works just great.
1) Copy this script and paste in Notepad
2) Save as 'defrag_all.vbs to your Desktop
3) Click on the VBS Icon and it will Run CMD and defrag ALL HD.
HTH,
Ed
Note: Make sure to copy all the below including the last sentence (Set
WshShell=Nothing)
'defrag_all.vbs - Defrags all hard disks - Can be run as a Scheduled Task
'� Doug Knox - 3/29/2002
'This code may be freely distributed/modified
Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Dim fso, d, dc
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set dc = fso.Drives
For Each d in dc
If d.DriveType = 2 Then
Return = WshShell.Run("defrag " & d & " -f", 1, TRUE)
End If
Next
Set WshShell = Nothing

Clint, why can't I do that the regular way with XP? It has a "none" thing
to click on. I haven't tried it, as I always start in safe mode when I
defrag and that seems to cut off screen savers and most everything else.

Jeff, what OS is this? If it's 98xx and not XP, why not do
it the regular way? Go to display properties, then open the
'screen saver' tab. Set that to 'none', then click
'settings', then set monitor to never power down.
