have you defraged your computer

[OLDYELLOW]

you should be able to sort them out in your i.e go to tools internet security ectra and enable your pop up blocker

[the dude]

 

 

  owen what does defraged mean

[owen101]

go to all programs

then accesories

then system tools

then you should see disk defragmenter

try that first and then if not do what old yellow says

or try old yellows way first

[ryesway]

have you defraged your computer

it wont let it tell me to run chsck or something like that aint got a clue what that means im not getting any virus alerts up or any thing like that ive run scans they come back clean, deleted cookies and history  so im not sure what eles to do

 

 

[owen101]

have you tried what old yellow said

[ryesway]

ay up oldyellow ive done this but still happens

 

 

[the dude]

 

 

  thanks all for your advice am on to it  hope i can get sorted   :)

[OLDYELLOW]

defraging only compressed the hard drive and frees up space however your supposed to run  disc clean up before it

[owen101]

yep but it could be that he has files broken up that need to be compressed

[OLDYELLOW]

ay up oldyellow ive done this but still happens

 

 

when you have enabled pop up block then click apply you may need to reboot for your settings to be changed

[ryesway]

just had a go at the defragment and when i press defrag it pops up disk defragment has detected that chkdsk is scheduled to run on volume (c:) chkdsk/f. so can you work that out  :-/

[owen101]

go through to system tools and do the disk clean-up then try it again
