Good ideas..I am not familiar enough with the does and don'ts to know what
to do. D has 14% free space..the notice from defrag was it is a mess. and I
noticed when I tried to enter D that I get a message saying I can't enter so
I have no idea what is there. It says any change could prevent recovery
latter. which bothers me. All I see are locks with the various items it
contains--preload, recovery, tools, 1386
just don't know quite how to handle it. or is this warning really relevant?.

ML,
Although I've never experienced any data loss from defraging a drive,
how much space do the contents of D: occupy? If you burn the contents to a
CD/DVD, the resulting disk will not be fragmented and will give you the
peace of mind to go ahead and defrag that drive. You could also just make a
folder directly under the C drive and copy everything from D: into it. Once
the defrag is done and you're verified that everything is still there,
simply delete the folder.
Peace,
GMan
