I don't think that sending this to the list is a problem.  That's why 
there's a delete key.
OK, I'll be as clear as I can on how these tasks are done.
1. hit the left windows key and hit M until you hear My Computer, and hit 
enter.
2.  Errow to local disc C.
3.  Hit, alt enter.  it should say, local disc C properties dialogue, 
general page, lable edit.
4. Tab once, you should hear, disc clean up Button.  Hit enter on that.  It 
will take a few seconds as it scans the hard drive, so be patient.
5. Arrow down the list of results and make sure that they are all checked by 
hitting the space bar. Some will already be checked.
6.  Tab to OK and hit the space bar.  It will ask if you want to perform 
these actions, it will be on yes, hit the space bar.
7. When it's done, it will be back on the disc clean up button.
8.  Now, tab until you hear, general tab and right arrow once to the tools 
tab.

1. On the tools tab,  tab twice until you hear, defragmentation defragment 
now... button.
2.  Hit enter, and tab twice until you hear, defragment button.  Hit enter. 
This could take several minutes to complete.
3.  When it's done, it will say, view report button.  You don't need to do 
that unless you feel the need to read it.
4. If you want to see how much of it is done, you can hit the insert page 
down and it will tell you the percentage that's completed.
5. When it's done, tab to close button, and you're done with that.
