 | Junior Member with 4 posts. | | Join Date: Apr 2009 Experience: Intermediate | | Running McAffe, But my comp is.. I've updated, and I have been running a fully Verified subscription of McAffe 09. I recently got on my family's laptop. It has only 68.5 Gigs. It was filled to 67.75. I've been running Disk Cleanups, Scans, Scans, Scans, None stop. Free'd up 22 Gigs, Now well, Ever since I've gotten on this comp it's been slow, getting a little faster everyday. I'm running on a Dell Inspiron E1705,Windows XP SP3, Fully Updated Computers, No B-S Downloads, I keep it pretty safe, and have security on at all times. Anyone know anything I can do?
Oh I forgot to mention, I've never been able to open Error-Checking, Or Disk Defragmenters, I've downloaded some and then deleted all of them for not working..., Can anyone give me any suggestions to get my computer up and running better, or if I've done something wrong?
Any help is greatly appericiated,
Thanks. Hayboy1213 | | Distinguished Member with 7,642 posts. | | Join Date: Mar 2009 Location: Cyberspace Experience: Advanced | | Have you tried to defrag in Safe Mode?
Or try this fix to restore defrag.exe. | | Junior Member with 4 posts. | | Join Date: Apr 2009 Experience: Intermediate | | No.
I'm not to familiar with Navagating in Safe-Mode. Is it the same as regular?

#10 | To expound more, on my Windows 98 computer, to be honest, it took about 50 hours! That was running it in safe mode, because it did not even go off of 0% in normal mode. | | Distinguished Member with 7,642 posts. | | Join Date: Mar 2009 Location: Cyberspace Experience: Advanced |
