Great site. I still haven't solved the problem. However, it appears to be a problem with Cleanup manager which is a Windows XP file cleanmgr.exe. It starts but does not prorgess. Gives a message saying it is compressing files. When I cancel and then press "conrol-alt-delete", it still is listed in the processes. Is there a way of uninstalling this or loading it again without having to install entire XP? I have a Toshiba OEM laptop so I'm not sure how one loads parts of Windows XP. Thanks again and yes I am a dog.

Gottfried, I just used pitstop on my XP computer - after you mentioned it - this is what they gave me: Drive C has 6% of its files fragmented, and a total of 8% of its data in fragmented files. Drive D has 15% of its files fragmented, and a total of 25% of its data in fragmented files. You should defragment drives as soon as possible for best performance. Now for the dumb question - what is this D drive? I went to my computer and it says: Local Disk (C) Dise_Backup (D) 3 1/2 (A) DVD (E) CD_RW (F) I never knew I had a D drive and I'm not sure what it is - what does it mean - back up?
