March 18, 200620 yr Alright, a few weeks ago I decided it was time to de-frag the computer because I haven't for about a year, so I loaded it up and got it started. Came back a few hours later and it hadn't changed from when I left, it kept changing from 0% to 1%, and then back to 0% again. Does anyone know why this is?!

March 18, 200620 yr Mine does that, but not to that extreme. It'll get to 70%, then go back down to zero, but then it will "climb the ranks" more quickly this time. The % completed bar really is completely inaccurate. I don't know about your specific problem though, it seems a little extreme.

It does it faster the second time because it's already done most of it the first time. The problem is caused by programs writing to the disk while the defrag is running, hence Mercifull's advice. The % appears to be an accurate representation of how much of the disk has been defragmented.
March 21, 200620 yr Author Yep, thanks guys. All I had to do was unplug the broadband and it worked. Btw does anyone know how I can speed up this computer so I can play runescape again? I used to play on another computer but we don't have it anymore. I'm using a windows 2000 ME and whenever I login it just lags out.
