Cecil,

Reboot your computer as windows starts up keep tapping F8 and you will get
the window for safe mode. This is the same for XP as previous versions

><	I guess even XP has a safe mode. I have never tried it on this
><computer so will have to look up what key to hit to start it. Someone else
><also said to do this but no one has mentioned the key to hit so far. I
><turned off the virus program and an automatic backup program but
><don't know
><what else might be running that would slow down the defrag. The
><hard drives
><are 200 Gb with lots of files and folders so it is not a short job.
