Hi One2Many,
Well I have to hand it to you- I've been trying for weeks to show my husband this website and get him to help me with posting pics and accessing chat but to no avail - the minute he thinks now that there might be a PC out there that is sick he has suddenly become keenly interested! - PCs are his addiction!. He wants to know what error message is showing up when trying to defrag?

Bandit

When was the last time you DID run defrag? Also, how much free space do you have on the thing? One of my old PC's died about a year ago when I had it completely jammed up with photos and music, never could get it to work right even after I "deleted" a lot of stuff and de-fragged.
