I was doing a clean install and suddenly am having an issue with fragments
unable to be defrag'd. The first time we went through it the issue occured
in the WOW64 emulator, and thing s we're chugging a little. So I deleted
the partition, formatted and installed. Everything looked cool until it was
time to install SP2. Then again with the files. This time it was something
to the effect of Windows\documentsand settings\SysEvent.Evt. Im sorry, I
forgot the exact name on the kitchen table at home and im landlocked at work
for another hour or 2. Another file with a reference to IE5(ie5? huh?). So, I
guess the true question is there any way to get these files to actually
defrag or am I stuck doing a full reinstall because its affected a system
file. Performance, appears to have taken a hit but more to the point this is
a brand new pristine system. Its been working well for about1.5 months, this
tear down and rebuild was more of an exercise for me than anything else until
this occured. Will post the file names as soon as I get home. Thanks in
advance for any help. :)
P.S.
The rig:
Evga 680i SLI mobo
E6600 2.6 Duel Core
4 gig DDR, 800, Duel Channel
Raptor X 10K 150 Gig HD
8800GTX
X-Fi
All except the sound card are out of the box begining of Feb and have been
running like a dream, its only during this reinstall these files, unable to
be defrag'd, have cropped up. Somone actually said that I should just run
the defrag until im blue in the face and it wll get it eventually but I
really want to understand what went/is going wrong if possible. Even if its
silly, any answer at least is progress! Thanks again.
