Speed up program launches in Windows 98 Fragmentation occurs when files aren't stored on a drive in adjoining areas. Windows 98 may need to split files as you work with them and store pieces in different drive sections. This slows your computer's operation, since files must be reassembled before they are displayed again. The same is true of program files; if they're scattered all over the drive, they will load more slowly. Win98's Disk Defragmenter utility contains an option to not only piece together fragmented files, but to arrange program files so that they will launch faster. 1 - Click the "Start" button 2 - Select Programs/Accessories/System Tools/Disk Defragmenter 3 - Click the "Settings" button 4 - Check the "Rearrange program files so my programs start faster" option 5 - Click OK to start defragmentation NOTE: Defragmentation of large drives may take several hours to complete.
