Files keep getting fragmented just after running Speed Disk.
Ok I have a new PC AMD XP1800, 256 DDR memory, 64 DDR video card, Windows 98 with a 40 GB drive.
C: is 30 GB and D: is 10 GB.
I have Norton System Works 2.0.
As you can see from the image the blue are files that are being modified all the time.
I have had Speed Disk Alarm go off on me 4 times in the last 24 hours and the senors show 99% or only 1% fragmented.
But when I look at the fragmention report I have lots and lots of files that are 80% fragmented.
Is there something going on with Windows 98 and Norton.?
I have not changed anything and am use the default setting as I have alway done on my old PC with 95a.
I have never had any trouble on the old PC.
I know you can do a Customize Optimization with Speed Disk and wonder if I should.
All that blue you see are from PhotoImpact 6 (295 MB, 5494 files) and 7 (323 MB, 7095 files). It is changing the order of the files on me all the time I guess and making all the fragmention.
I think every one of the many many things that use one of the many files for each of the effect etc. are alway being moved by Speed Disk for the Optimization.
Is windows 98 also doing anything to the files?
Are there any setting that I need turned on or off or what every.
I mean you got Speed Disk moving files around but if windows is doing the samething but in another order the files are getting bounced all over my Drive.
