Hi there David and fellow listers,
there's no need to do the full error check, you can do the quick check, you
don't go and check the boxes you just hit the space bar on check now. if
there's any serious problems then the computer will then tell you after the
check that you need to perform the full check, this error check takes
around 5 to 6 minutes to do, then you can do the defragmenting with no
problems..
Hope this helps
Regards
Chris Cant.
