My computer ( AMD 1150 - Gateway - win ME) wont defragment. This is first time in 2 years i have tried this. It goes to 3-4 percent and then goes back to 0 percent. It did this for 10 hours straight. Why wont it defragment?

As well as closing down all the background tasks with ctl alt del (except systray and explorer) you also need to disble your screen saver. Right click on the desktop, go to active desktop and cusomise my desktop, select the screen saver tab and in the drop down box select none and then apply it. After defrag has finished go back to the screen saver tab and reselect your old screen saver and again click apply.

try pressing ctrl+alt+del to bring up the task manager and close the background programs. Make sure you leave 'Explorer' if you close 'Systray' the computer may not shutdown properly later, you will have to manually restart. If that doesn't work try running a defrag from safe mode or the command prompt.
