I need a good defragment program for win 98

yea come on get out of the dark ages

there is no good one for 98 a reload usually sorts out defragging quit nicely
 
Diskeeper is the one i use its pretty good i think ver 8 works on 98 not sure its has a nice scheduling interface so my disk is always kept in tip top condition.
 
Win98 defrag is very slow. By the time MS released Win ME, they had improved defrag.exe tremendously.

Thus, the "guru" fix is to simply replace the Win98 defrag.exe with the defrag.exe from Win ME. The article below explains how to do it...(really easy, although he is VERY long-winded about it).

The link to download the ME version of defrag.exe:

IIRC, it more than doubles the speed of a Win98 defrag. YMMV.

Simple and effective.

Good luck.
 
Erm, dual boot?

;)

If you like DOS games, get yourself some lessons in booting into DOS where you can play those games in a native environment, and then have XP for everything else.

Seriously, if your still using win98, hey, you can get help - there's care groups out there for you ... ;)

Windows 98 was a good friend of mine for many years.
 
Nothing wrong with XP Home, only idiots think Pro makes a huge difference.
