Can anyone tell me,Why all of a sudden I can no longer run Disk Cleanup and Defrag wont' look at the compressed files?
When I run scan disk it seems to run ok? But when you click on the boxes for Automatically fix and Recover bad sectors, Then re-start the system, there is a screen on start-up that says it cannot access "NTFS"?
I've even tried using a restore point as far back as 06/01/05
But it wont' make the changes?
Windows XP Home.....SP-1.
I cant' figure this one out?

Throw that crummy old Commodore 64 away and get yourself a nice Sinclair Spectrum 48K....
That's that problem solved...

What was the other problem... ...!

Tee-Hee...!

I think your the only one that read the system stats!
GAWD! The other problem is driving me nut's!

Defrag and cleanup will not work when you have corrupted files or errors on the drive. Scandisk doesn't do a good job at fixing it. Try running a diskcheck from the Recovery Console. Boot up with your WinXP disk and press R to enter the repair mode. Once you get to the DOS prompt, type: CHKDSK /r

That often times will repair bad sectors/files that scandisk can't fix.
