Thanks for the info, I downloaded that new Defrag update and it actually worked!!! But I was not able to scan disk in "thorough" nor in "standard". The only time it runs scandisk is when the computer is shut off improperly, but it does not give you the option to do a "thorough" scan. I have important programs that still cant run because of this. If you have any other idea I'd appreciate it because you have given me the best advise so far, and I have asked many, many, many people.
