In the boot.ini file, the only entire should look like this:

Code:

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(0)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect

Remove any extra / options unless you know what they do and you want to keep them (note that I say like, it won't be exacly the same).

Egnor what I said, i think I was barking up the wrong tree.

Restart your computer, and if it says "Windows is going to scan the disk bla bl bla bla..." let it do it. Then try defrag again.

If you're not real Computer Literate, as you said....
You need to learn one simple thing, that when Xp tells you to do something, you do it.

If it says that Chkdsk needs to run, then by all means, RUN IT.
Why is that a problem?

Go to start then RUN, type in
chkdsk /f /r
and press Enter.
Let'er run!
After chkdsk runs, then try Defrag again and NEVER click the Analyze button. You're there to Defrag not waste time analyzing...just Defrag.
You'll actually see the analysis when you do the defrag.

(always leave a space before any / in a command line)

Cheers mate

That sounds like an awful idea, leting windows tell you what to do... I find it's best you you disable most of the automated "Windows is going to help you by using 100% of your CPU for an hour while you try and play Half Life 2" crap. Besides the stuff that actualy comes with windows and is genuinly part of windows, there is software out there that tries to trick you into thinking it is actualy windows and tries to make you do some thing... for example:

Error: server cannot be reached or image not available (timeout: 10 seconds).
