Tomato FWIW: I appear to have had the exact same problem you were having. I have win.98 second edition and my scan disk would run but only after several attemps. It would stop and give me the message saying it had stopped and started did I want to recieve the message again. Also, it took me over 5 hours to defrag the other day because Defrag kept starting and stopping...over an over and over. I also was having the same problem with Windows shutting down on me (so far it hasn't done it again although I have only been on the pc for about 4 hours). I also was having another problem, my hard drive kept making a noise almost all day like it was running a program or something. I did what the thread riders suggested and took Microsoft Office out of my start up menu and I also took off my screensaver. So far it has worked. My scan disk ran fast, my defrag appeared to run at normal speed, I am no longer having the noise I mentioned above. Hope it works for you. dawgy
