THE FAIL SAFE SCANDISK/DEFRAG METHOD

This document is designed for folks who are having Major problems
running scandisk and disk defragmenter the standard way, or if scandisk
and defrag are having Major problems completing their tasks.

If scandisk or defrag keep restarting then something is writing to
your hard drive. These are called Background Processes. Hold down
Alt-Ctrl than press Del which opens up the Task Manager to view most
of these processes.

If you only have a few items there, select each item and then End Task.
You must however let Explorer continue to run. Systray is optional. Then
set your screen saver to None and try scandisk or defrag again.

Many folks however, have 10 or 20 or even 35 items in the Task Manager.
In this case it's much easier to boot to Safe Mode, disable the screen
saver, disable power management, and then runn scandisk or defrag.

To get to Safe Mode, tap the F8 key IMMEDIATELY after you see Starting
Windows or hold down the Ctrl Key while booting. Sometimes you have
to try both methods at the same time(g) This “should” get you the menu
you need to boot to Safe Mode.

If you have a USB mouse it will NOT work in Safe Mode. You may need
to invest in a standard ps/2 or serial mouse if just for tweaking purposes
in Safe Mode or even DOS.

If defrag stops with an error message or just stops, then you may have to
run a FULL thorough scandisk first. A bad sector on your drive may need to
be repaired by scandisk.

Keep in mind that a virus or trojan may also be a background process.
To eliminate that possibility it's often best to boot with a clean
bootdisk and run an up-to-date anti-virus from DOS.

A third party utility like {EndItAll} (not for WinMe) is designed to close
most of your background processes at once saving you time if you like
to run Scandisk and Defrag in regular mode and need to close down
all the background processes at once.

Many times your network or @home connection can also cause scandisk
or defrag to continually restart. If you have an inhouse network you can
just pull out the cable from the back of your NIC or the HUB or turn the
HUB off. If you have an @home connection then YOU MUST shut the cable
modem off while your system is also off BEFORE YOU pull out the cable,
boot up, than close all the background processes as noted above and retry.

REMINDER-Be sure your computer system is off before you unplug or plug
in any cables or power down your cable modem.

Another tweak which may work to temporarily disable your network traffic
is to go into Device Manager, double click on Network Adapters, select
your NIC or ethernet card, choose Properties, than tick Disable in this
hardware profile. You can untick it after scandisk or defrag completes
and you reboot.

However, even tho folks do the above they still may have problems
running scandisk and/or defrag normally and that's the purpose of the
rest of this document.

Again, the most simple commonly recommended remedy is to boot to
Safe Mode, disable your screen saver, power management, and then run
scandisk and/or defrag. You may have to in advance also disable
power management in the bios also.

There is a possible pitfall to running defrag in Safe Mode however, as
sometimes your desktop icons may get re-arranged.

Again, remember to turn off your cable modem, printer, and any other
external device if you are having any problem running scandisk or
defrag the normal or Safe Mode way.

-MORE DETAILS-

SCANDISK

1. The first utility most folks run is scandisk. Scandisk should always
be run before defrag as a matter of good maintenance. Keep in mind
however that you can set defrag to scan your disk first just in advance
of the defrag.

2. You have the option of running scandisk in DOS or Safe Mode. To run
scandisk in DOS boot to Command Prompt Only using the F8 key when you
see Starting Windows 9X on your screen. You have to be very fast. If
you are finding it difficult to get the menu to appear install TweakUI
first in Windows and set tweakUI for a 3 or 5 second boot menu delay in
Boot | Boot Menu and check Always show boot menu.

Or, in Windows 98 you can also try holding down the Ctrl key when the
system starts to get to the boot menu tho it's an unsupported switch
and you can't expect it to work on every system.

If your system is not even booting up from your C: drive than use a
bootdisk with scandisk on it. If you have a drive overlay program than
you have to insert the bootdisk at the proper time.

3. Once you are in DOS, type scandisk C: than Enter to start the utility.
Let it finish, than you will be presented with an option to do a surface
scan. Let scandisk perform a full surface scan in which case you have to
babysit it as when it finds any bad clusters you will be prompted as to
what to do. Generally, I choose NOT to save the data and I skip undo as
any data that is in a bad sector is most likely damaged beyond repair
anyway. Your choice may be different its up to you.

Of course if you have other drive letters you need to scan replace C:
with the Hard Drive letter of your choice.

4. If you want to automate the DOS version of scandisk, type
scandisk /all /autofix /nosave /surface

/all Scans all hard disks attached to the system
/autofix Automatically fixes errors
/nosave Doesn't save any lost clusters
/surface Performs surface scan on the disk

5. More often then not tho, I find that running scandisk in Safe Mode
to be faster. Again, use F8 to select Safe Mode or if you have installed
tweakUI the boot menu will appear automatically. Once you boot to
Safe Mode disable your screen saver first.

Now configure scandisk. In Type of test tick Thorough. Go to Options, tick
System and data areas and click OK. Now tick Automatically fix errors.
Next, select Advanced, tick Free in Lost file fragments and tick Delete
in Cross-linked files and click OK. Now click on Start to run the utility.

Again, as a reminder, this is the configuration I use as I find that any
data in bad sectors is useless. If you have data that is irreplaceable
you may want to learn more about scandisk and how to recover data from
a damaged drive or consult a professional service person in advance.

Some folks will strongly suggest that you should never let scandisk fix
errors automatically. This is a legitimate argument. A boot sector virus
or misconfigured hard drive in the cmos setup can result in the loss of
all your data. Personally, when I run scandisk with autofix, I do so
knowing that the hard drive is setup correctly and its values haven't
been changed and there aren't any viruses that will interfere with the
operation.

6. Please note: The downside of marking bad sectors bad is that when you
go and reboot your computer it may not boot at all, or certain apps will
not work, or you will be missing pieces of Windows and have to reinstall.
However, you may discover that your hard drive is on the way out and in
fact running a full surface scan WAS necessary to properly service the
system and discover the real root of your computer problem.

In other words, running scandisk in this manner doesn't create a new
problem, it may simply may bring to light what the real problem is and
most often it's a failing hard drive if new or additional clusters are
marked bad.

DEFRAG

1. Now it's time to prepare your computer to run defrag. There are some
steps to take that will certainly allow it to complete faster as follows:
Remove all temp files in [replace the C: with your actual drive letter]
C:\Windows\Temp and C:\Windows\Temporary Internet Files. I do this after
first booting to DOS using COP 2.2 or I delete them manually using Windows
Explorer. Its quite common to find 3,000 to 15,000 files in those folders
if you haven't cleaned them out for a while.

If you delete your temp and cache files while in Windows be sure to also
Empty out the recycle bin afterwards.

Windows 98 users can also use Disk Cleanup which is in Accesssories |
System Tools. There are many third party automated temp/cache file
cleaners as well.

There are also other folders which may contain thousands of temp files
including Netscape cache folders for each version of Netscape you have.
You will have to manually find where Netscape is installed tho by default
it's usually in C:\Program Files. Netscape has options to clean temp files
and there are also other third party utilities which make this job easier
as previously noted.

Also check c:\dos for any *.tmp files as if you are working on an older
system the temp folder may still be set as c:\dos.

2. When you use Explorer to delete temp files, they are not in fact
deleted but go to the recycle bin so you have to empty that afterwards.
To save time deleting files using Explorer, after you select the files
you want to delete you can hold your Shift key down to delete them
which avoids sending them to the recycle bin.

3. The most important thing to do prior to running defrag is to make
sure there are no background apps running. There are several ways
to do this. First, you can hold down the Alt-Ctrl keys than press Del
which opens Task Manager and close each program individually. Or,
you can use a utility like EndItAll to close everything but explorer and
systray. You also have to remember to shut off your screen saver as well.

4. The third way to help assure there are no background apps running
is to Boot to Safe Mode using the tips noted above in the SCANDISK section.
Disable your screen saver and run Defrag. It may still restart
2 to 5 times at 10% but 99% of the time it will now get past that
and finish.

REMINDER-Make sure you have your most important data backed up
on another media before using this advice. Make sure you know how
to restore your data. Make sure your backup media is good. Always
have at least 2 copies of all your important data. Kept one copy in
a different room or better yet, a different home or office than your
computer is in.

Have fun and don't get frustrated. A computer is only a tool. Home
