Nov 3rd
If you want to speed up your computer or optimize its performance, I am sure that you have tried to defragment disk once or more. It is true that defragmentation can help improve computer performance. But, during the defragmentation, some may have encountered certain problems. So, in this article, I will introduce the common methods to solve this problem.
If the system is reminding you that there is “chkdsk” running, it cannot defragment the disk. If this happens, you can solve it as follows:
Before defragmentation, you should clear up the disk. Click “My Computer”, right-click the drive needs to defragment and click “Properties”—“General” to choose disk, take C disk for example, in the dialog box of “Disk Cleanup for (C:)”, you can tick the files to delete. And you can check these files by clicking “View Files”. Then, click “OK” to clean up the C disk.
Secondly, you should scan the disk ahead of defragmentation. Also in the “Properties” tab, click “Tools”—“Check Now”—“Start”. After finishing the scan, you can exit this dialog box. Then, in this stage, you have to make sure that you have closed down all the running programs, the real-time virus monitor and screensaver in particular.
Now, you can start defragmentation. In the “Properties” tab of the disk you want to defragment, click “Tools”—“Defragment Now”—“OK”. The system will remind you after completing it.
Be careful that, you should not read and write any data during this process but just let your computer to finish it, because the computer is vulnerable to go crushed by any read-write operation. If it is hard to end defragmentation, you have to defragment it in the “Safe Mode”.

Speed up Computer—Some Tips about Disk Fragments
Oct 28th
Have you ever been bothered that your computer is running slower and slower? Do not worry. In this article, you can learn how to speed up computer without using any anti-virus software or reinstalling the system.
It is known to all that if there are too many fragments in the C disk, it may lag the system speed. In this regard, it is necessary to quicken the speed by reducing the fragments in the C disk as many as possible.
In the default situation, the system may create a temporary swap file named WIN386.SWP when the physical memory is insufficient. However such files always take up spaces that result in a mass of fragment. So, it is better for you handle the fragments in the C disk to improve computer performance.
In order to prevent the fragments to hinder the computer speed in the C disk, you had better put them into other areas. Open the “Control Panel”, double-click the system icon, in the popping up dialog box, you can click performance/virtual memory icon to choose the settings options and then choose D disk from hard disk option. And click “OK” and restart the computer, you may find the temporary swap files have put under D disk. That is to say, the fragments created by such files may hide in the D area.
Meanwhile, when you surfing on the Internet by using Internet Explorer, it may leave lots of swap files under the catalog of C：\WINDOWS\Temporary Internet Files. The more visiting the websites, the more such files are left on the catalog. Therefore, it is better to point such files to other areas. Firstly, to set a restored catalog of temporary files under D disk, and open “Control Panel” to double-click Internet tab, in the dialog box, click setting/move folders and choose the pointed catalog of D disk. By setting like that, a mass of fragments produced by Internet Explorer only can be put in the D disk.

Disk Defragment—How to Solve defragment Disk Problems?
Oct 27th
It is known to all that defragmentation can speed up the computer. And, everyone absolutely has defragmented or tried to do it. Some may have encountered such problems that it is impossible to continue to defragment the disk, especially C disk. Well, in this article, you will learn some specific methods to solve it.
The problem is why the C disk can not keep defragmenting?
In the Windows XP system, when conducting defragmentation, the system reminds you that the files of C:\Windows\prefetch\WMIPRVSE.EXE-28F301A9.PF are broken or damaged, so it cannot continue to scan the system.
In fact, C:\Windows\Prefetch\ is the pre-reading folder of Windows XP. The system restores frequent used data in this folder so as to facilitate the reading speed when it needs to read those data again. However, since you use the folder for a long time, the Prefetch folder becomes bigger and bigger, even some broken files are hidden here. So, if you do not take any action to get rid of these junks, it is vulnerable to appear the above problem. And the simple solution to this is to clear up the whole folders and then perform defragmentation.
And, when you find C disk has been overstaffed and computer is running slowly, it is time for you to clear up it immediately. Here are some tips I have been using as follows:
1. Clear up the temporary files in the C disk. Such as the system temporary files with the extension of “INTERNET”. They are nothing but useless which takes up the space largely.
2. Clean up the desktop and the files in “My Documentary” and remove the files with large size to other disks.
3. Form a good habit—do not install application in the C disk as much as possible. If you have installed in it, you had better reinstall them to other disks.
4. Use defrag to clean up fragments and clear registry.
Besides, if programs are uninstalled abnormally, such as deleting DEL files directly, you have to clean up the registry. On the other hand, you can delete the remaining uninstalling and used information, archived data and so on.
All in all, it is quite important for you to shape a good habit of <a href=”http:// www.advanceddefrag.com”>defragmenting disks</a>. But if the problems happen, besides solving them manually, you can also use <a href=”http:// www.advanceddefrag.com”>some helpful tools</a> to share the burden.
