Installed WinXP on top of WinXP

Locked

I had a problem where I could no longer defrag so thought, in my ignorance, the solution was to reinstall WinXp. What do I do now, defrag still does not work? I now need to rid myself of all the extra WinXP download too.

Thanks a big bunch for your help!!!

  Did you do a Repair installation or a New installation to another directory (folder)?
  
  If repair install, no problem.
  
  Any error messages regarding defrag? What is behavior? Need more info.

  Hi there
  Yes, I did get an error message when doing defrag. I chose the save option before reinstalling WinXP, hoping that what ever I had lost would automatically be replaced.
  
  Thanks a million!!!
