Rep Power: 10 | What is this defragmentation... Which is the best software for this... One more doubt.. These are two ways to defragment. (If there's any other,let me know) To start the defrag utility, click on the Start button, then hover your mouse over all programs, then hover over Accessories, then hover over System Tools, then click on Disk Defragmenter. 1. Open My Computer. 2. Right-click the local disk volume that you want to defragment, and then click Properties. 3. On the Tools tab, click Defragment Now. 4. Click Defragment. If we can defragment through the above ways,then why do we require an external software to defragment... |

As u store new data in ur hard disc... It gets fragmented... By fragmentation, I mean.. the blocks of data isn't normally stored physically in a continuous manner... Its scattered all over the place...which increases the access time... Hence, slowing down of your computer over a period of time.. Defragmentation means re-arranging the data on the hard-disc to reduce fragmentation which results in overall performance of ur system... Windows provide a tool for defragmentation... u can use it from Accessories-->>System Tools-->>Disc Defragmenter Therez a tool Diskeeper 2008 which is probably best out there for this purpose...

Rep Power: 1 | To maintain ur pc : 1 . Immediately after installation of windows take a backup of your system registry & c:\windows folder on a cd. 2 . Use an antivirus & a disk cleaner (or manually create a disk cleaner which cleans the disk automatically before windows starts - I have done that) Now your pc is maintained well & is also safe |
