That my be the case but Diskeeper works great for me and in much faster than Windows defragmenter.

M&#036; Defrag was developed by Executive Software, the makers of Diskeeper.
After testing M&#036; defrag then running diskeeper back-to-back, files were constantly moved and rearranged from one app to the other.

I myself prefer Perfect Disk as my defrag program of choice.
After testing perfect disk and M&#036; defrag I have come to the conclusion that M&#036; defrag accepts the arrangement of perfect disk and I myself notice a significant difference in how my computers responds.

Conclusion: Perfect Disk

M&#036; firewall was developed by the makers of Tiny Personal Firewall also.
They are also interested in Anti-virus software and a search engine like google to add the Microsoft name to.

Hope this helps,
Steve

diskeeper 8 is great&#33; defrags both my 120 gigs in less than 30min&#33; that&#39;s not bad&#33;

Your settings must be wrong . Check defrag priorities . I would n&#39;t be with out my diskeeper 8 Best one I think. If thats the case also set to defrag when screen saver kicks in too. What the hey defragging when your not in front of your puter :D

[skelley521]

As long as it works for you and your system then keep it.

How much space on those 120&#39;s is used space?

As for the settings, nah, sorry I test with all possible setting arrangements before I draw any type of conclusion. Have you tried Perfect Disk?

[peat moss]

Skelley I &#39;ll have to try it . I think of disk format when I hear Perfect disk. Does it boot defrag, mts as well? In a perfect world I&#39;d bring back win95 defrag &#33;

Yes it does, give it a try, I think you will enjoy the optimization ;)


Its been awhile since I have used 95 defrag lol, but I use Windows ME defrag on my wifes 98SE machine. Its 4X faster than 98&#39;s defrag, but she has been on me to install XP Pro Corp for awhile now, so that&#39;s is what is on tonight&#39;s agenda :)

Skelly Set it up as windows classic first or she&#39;ll drive you nuts. Going where&#39;s this where&#39;s that .Speaking from experience of course. :lol:
