I need a spot of advice on a Windows/PC related subject, so any replies send to me privately, please, if you think they'll cause offence on this list. There is a slight QPC angle to this (see below) which I hope someone can explain.

As my PC has slowed down and some programs needing large files such as
recording CDs, making audio recordings etc are becoming more
difficult, I assumed the hard disk needed defragmenting. But it
refuses to defragment saying there's a possible problem with the hard
disk, that I should use scandisk. But running Scandisk shows no
errors. I'm using Windows 98SE. Anyone any idea what's going on?

Interestingly, the one unaffected program with large-ish files is
QPC2. I wonder if this is because the QXL.WIN is a fixed size Windows
file in a fixed location on the disk, so fairly unaffected by
fragmentation?

I am replying to this privately but I have to state publicly (here comes the blackmail -Ed. :-) that I will refrain from sending you also a really good set of utilities to do these jobs more efficiently until you answer me the following question:. "In which episode of the Tweenies (TM) have you participated?"


Heheheeeeeheee
