Slooow download??

Well I thought I had the defrag covered but I guess I didn't I had something called "set it and forget it" in which it did different things once a week and defrag was one of them. I would check it ever so often and it would say that the disk did not need defrag.

I was getting the blue screen and had to take it to get fixed.

That sounds like disc-keeper. I have that and it's nice. It should be taking care of defreagging for you if you have the set it and forget it set right.
