Win 2k Pro Preventative Maintenance

Locked

In Win 9x I know how to Scandisk/ defrag/ clean temp files/etc.

What sort of things should I do to a Win 2k Pro machine that is acting flakey to spruce it up?

Windows 2000 comes with Diskeeper Lite, which replaces scandisk.

Windows 2000 comes with Diskeeper Lite, which replaces defrag. You will need to use chkdsk to look for and correct file corruption.

The answers above are correct. I just wanted to suggest you to use Norton System Works 2001. It’s a great package of programs that includes not only defrag and scandisk utilities, but can also check and repare you Registry. Try it out.
