Ok so I just deframented by computer a few weeks ago and I just noticed this problem. When I open up My Computer and right click on the C drive and go to properties, I notice that the Defragment Now button is shaded out and it says that I do not have a Defragment software installed on my computer.

However, when I go to Start-->Accessories-->System Tools and click Defragment, it runs normally. Is this a problem and how can I fix it? Thanks.

Click start then run, type sfc /scannow then press enter to replace the system files, you need the XP CD and get a blue bar, reboot when the bar goes
