Ran An Auslogics Disk Defrag Analysis?

May 18, 2011

i've been doing some movie making for Internet lately, the raw avi files for which are rather large, the latest being 7.5gb for not even an hour's recording. are these files weaving around the smaller ones the reason for my hard drive getting fragmented so much lately? i just ran an auslogics disk defrag analysis and it found my hard drive was 11% fragged, and windows defragmentation found 14% the other day.

Disable Disk Defrag On SSD?

May 3, 2009

I read an article titled "Windows 7 gets SSD-friendly" a while back that Windows 7 was supposed to take more consideration regarding computers with Solid State Drives. One of the mentioned steps would be to disable the Defrag option (something to do with SSD not getting any benefit from the defraged drives yet the extra work could actually lower the lifecycle of the SSD).Quote: At last week�s WinHEC techfest, Microsoft announced it wanted Windows 7 to make better use of SSDs. �SSDs are on the path to reach their full potential� says Microsoft senior program manager Frank Shu, who in a conference session on Windows 7 Enhancements for Solid-State Drives outlined how Windows 7 will be more SSD-friendly than Vista or XP. After recently installing Windows 7 onto my Lenovo x300 (which includes a SSD) I noticed the Defrag schedule was not disabled.

Defrag Process Stops After Analyzing Disk

Mar 3, 2012

Disk defrag will analyze the disc but when I try to defrag at the point the process reaches "PASS 1, 2% REALOCATED" the process stops, neither the mouse or touch pad will work. This has been happening a for some time now. I have cleaned out programs not used anymore, etc. I am using 116gb and have 174 gb free / 32 bit operating system, 3gb ram, windows home 7 premium, service pack 1.

Secondary HDD Works Fine But Cannot Be Disk Cleanup Or Defrag?

Jul 2, 2011

I have a two HDD setup with a newer Western Digital Caviar Black 500GB as my secondary drive. It stores all my bigger files such as video games, videos, and so on. Whenever I try to optimize that hard drive using Disk Cleanup or Disk Defragmenter, it doesn't seem to execute the program. The hard drive is running and DC and DD have it on their list but when I use DC it would just come up with 0 mb to clean every time and DD always run a lot faster than the smaller primary drive which is also Western Digital. Is there somewhere in Windows 7 configuration that I need to change to enable the disk to be optimized?

Partition Analysis Bug During Setup

Jan 21, 2009

I've successfully installed several instances of Windows 7 Beta 1 on several virtual machines. However, I am being stymied when attempting to perfrom a "native" install into one of my hard disk partitions in a multiboot configuration. I keep getting the following error message during setup:

"Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition".

I have 2 internal hard disks. The first is a SCSI drive housing an instance of XP. It is the "system disk". The second is an IDE drive housing 4 primary partitions. The first holds NTFS data, the second an instance of XP MCE, the third contains VISTA SP1, the forth is the desired destination partition for Windows 7.

When I boot the Windows 7 setup DVD and get to the point of selecting the target partition I get the above error message.

Things I've tried:

1. Formatted the target partition as a Primary (via XP) - fails with above error msg

2. Formatted the target partition as Logical (via Vista) -- fails with above error msg

3. Left the area unformatted and let setup do the formatting - fails with above error msg

4. Installed a test version of Vista in the target partition first and

then tried to run a Windows 7 "Upgrade" from within that copy

of Vista - fails due to a weird bug requesting install of a disk driver

that device manager shows is already happily working.

I've been all over the web trying to find a solution. Many people have experienced this error message when installing Windows 7 in a multiboot situation with multiple drives but I have not found any viable circumventions. One person claimed that pulling the power cord on all hard disks other than the one containing the destination partition worked but I cannot do that since my SCSI is the "system disk" and houses the BCD and Bootmgr required by the VISTA (and Windows 7) partitions on my IDE drive.

This is probably a bug since Vista installs very nicely into the same partition with no problems. Hopefully it will be fixed by the RTM release. However, I would really like to circumvent the bug so I can use Windows 7 natively in the interim.

Defrag Won't Run

Aug 14, 2011

Windows home Premium, tried safe mode and administator mode. No go. The button will "push in" with the cursor but nothing happens. I have it set to run automatically under Task Scheduler once a week. The system runs ok, but .I can't tell if it has run, or when it quit running, and sooner or later it's going to need it. Somebody told me if defrag doesn't run, that isn't the only thing that's broken.

Was going to try to defrag but it crashed again. On a netbook right now.this is the BSOD error I get:---kernal_data_inpage_error***STOP: 0x0000007A (0x0000000000000020, 0xFFFFFFFFC000009D, 0xFFFFFA8006E0F078, 0x0000000000000000)Physical memory dumpy FAILED with status 0xC000009CI have no idea what that means - not super troubleshooting saavy beyond the basics

Windows 7 Won't Boot After Defrag

Aug 19, 2012

I normally dual-boot Windows XP and Windows 7 from separate partitions on the same physical drive. Now I cannot get Windows 7 Professional to boot after defragmenting the volume on which it resides from a different OS (Windows XP). Upon selecting Win7 from my boot menu, it initially gave a bootmgr error that a critical file could not be found.

I booted from the Win7 DVD and selected to repair my Win7 installation. I clicked on the details and the log indicated that partmgr.sys was found to be corrupt and had been replaced. Upon restarting, the Win7 animated logo appeared, but after that the screen went black and the computer rebooted.

I confirmed that partmgr.sys was replaced by booting into XP and looking for the file on the Win7 partition. I ran startup repair from the DVD again, but it said it replaced the same file- partmgr.sys - again. Chkdsk comes up clean, and the sfc /scannow command won't run because "there is a repair operation schedules that requires a reboot ."

There has got to be a way to get back into Win7 given that all I did was defrag..

Windows Defrag Showing 1%, Instead Of 0%

Dec 26, 2011

So I have defragged my system multiple times to optimize my overall system performance and every single time it shows 1% defragmented, eventhough I have ran the built in defragger for windows 7 64-bit home premium x amount of times to fix this.

I know that its not an immediate concern, but is this something I should be concerned with, since something seems to be wrong during file allocations when defragging.

Full Defrag Option Via Cmd?

Oct 19, 2009

The defrag tool in Windows Vista and Windows 7 seems to skip fragments larger than 64MB in size in order to cut down on defrag times.This problem was easily "solved" by going into command prompt and using the "-w" parameter.Example: defrag c: -w This option seems to have disappeared in Windows 7, and as such, large fragments are left unoptimized.

Clear Defrag History?

Jan 30, 2011

Is there a way to clear the 'Last Run' date and % fragmented in Disk Defragmenter in Windows 7?I've cleared the event viewer application and system log files and also completely disabled and reenabled the defrag service. I'm not sure what else to try.I ran Analyze on my SSD (did not run defrag) to see what it would say. I just don't want that history showing it as fragmented. I understand it's a trivial complaint though, but don't like seeing it. That data has got to be saved somewhere in the OS and I want to blow it up

Black Screen Of Death After IOLO Defrag?

May 17, 2012

My laptop (Dell Studio 1550, Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit) just gave me the black screen upon start-up. The Iolo System Mechanic had defragged the registry, I think, and it seems that the process had damaged my laptop's registry. I've ran sfc /scannow with no issues, but the memory diagnostic test froze. I am now running System Restore but it too returns a black screen upon completion.It seems from prior threads that a clean re-install is necessary. Would like to know if this is indeed the only solution, and if so, how do I go about re-installing without an installation CD (Dell never sent one, and I had bought the laptop abroad while I was in college).
