[bcab] Re: Doing a Reboot Defrag

Brian,

The system reboots after the defrag has completed and boots into
Windows. 

Even if it does halt you can simply turn the computer off, turn it back
on, hit reset after the Bios beep and it will boot into Windows as
normal.

You can also have it send a defrag log to a specified drive letter other
thant he drive beign defragged so yuou can view how it did.

Only problem I can think of with doing a reboot defrag is you won't have
speech or screen magnifier available to tell when it is finished
running.

But most hard drives make a quiet noise when being accessed, so you may
be able to hear this.

Not sure if Windows automatically starts after the defrag is finished,
or you need to click an ok button.
