Windows Defrag Slowed Down My Loading Times!

vampire622003 · Jan 16, 2009

My games loaded quick but my windows interface was kinda slow, so I used defrag in windows and now my interface loads fast but now my games load slow! I hate it when I am playing CODWAW and the video finishes before my computer is done loading the level! :banghead:

What defrag programs can I use that defrag it right?

I use Diskeeper 2009 Pro. Excellent defragger!
You can get free trial versions from the Diskeeper site, so d/l and try it out.

Give O&O Defrag a try...

It seems to work quite well and just basically manages your defragging all on its own...

P.S. Diskkeeper used to be good, seems they messed it up... Might just my situation, but it performed very poorly when I used it...

Diskeeper, no doubt. There is no comparison IMHO.

Perfect Disk 2008 all the way.

I'm an ultimate defrag fan i like strict file placement for optimal speed.

I go for the simple yet effective - piriform defraggler. Cant say enough good about it tbh.

+1 It's the best for XP.

For Vista though, I haven't found a good one as yet. Both Defraggler and jk_defrag leave more than 30GB fragged files on my drive - most of them would be the large system files named like {abcdkerfosif} which would be 4 or 5GB in size... :ohwell:

I used it for vista and really liked it. Never really paid attention to what it was doing mind, just knew it was better than microshit's defragger :laugh:
