If you're running XP and have the original cd, let your computer boot off of it and then run the repair...that usual fixes up ****ed up or corrupt windows files. If not, try downloading one of those third parter defraggers.

You sure your HD is OK? Hangs or reboots during a defrag can sometimes mean hardware problems...

Yup!

Time to download and burn the Ultimate Boot CD (http://ubcd.sourceforge.net/) ... Great HD and system diagnostics there.
