Have been away for a few days and see this topic once more. I know it was
most likely pure chance that I had the hard drive Failure after doing a
Defrag. Andrew Hodgeson is on holiday for the moment or i would ask him to
explain the risks of for example perhaps not finishing the job and,well all I
can recall it is to do with Indexes. I think I did let it finish. I have a
little sight. I recall it gave percentage readings. In appearance all I could
see was what looked little vertical coloured sticks of sea-side rock. It
mentioned Graphics all the time and numbers. I realised for the first time that
in fact the whole of Windows must be Graphics and numbers. I did not turn
anything off, have you told Val if she should turn off the Firewall? Should
she? How about AVG Ant-virus should that be turned off?. I am assuming the Disc
clean up is straight forward. It is the Defrag and some one said as it took a
long time they brought it to a halt. Was that wise? Had I not been through an
agony I would assume as George is that Drives are tough things and can stand a
lot. I have however in the last three days spoken to four people who all
suffered a Drive failure, so why is this? They did not use Jaws they said "it
just happened" so not so tough. Remember what Phil Medway said "Treat your
hardrive like your Granny's best Crystal Dorothy.
