I was noticing my pc was sluggish last night and it was pissing me off. I remembered that I havent defragged in a while. I never installed a defrag prog. when I last installed XP so I just used XP's. Heres the result:

Oh yea, it was originally 73% fragmented, but that number went down after about 5-10 runs. Now nothing is moving. Burning some movies to free up space.

Try to leave more free space and use another defrag program.

I'm surprised it would defrag at all given how full the disk appears to be.
Freeing up some space seems like a very good idea.

Get a good defrag program off BT, just because the defragger that comes with XP sux hairy wet donkey testicles.

But i was reading an article and drives with Ntfs dont fragment as much so you wont see a big improvement but just a slight as in 5% faster then previous

All that shit about ntfs not fraging much is just that. Specially if you dl a lot. Or install/uninstall progs quite a bit.

mst Defrag is really good as well, it works in e background, making sure files dont get fragmented in e first place!
