Answer» When I tried to run the Disk Cleanup, it keeps freezing at the early STAGE "Compress Old Files", and the CPU fan become so loud that I can hear it from downstairs. I've ran Disk Defragmenter, no different. I run it in Safe Mode, no different. What could be wrong? Thanks.Actually it's probably not freezing...the compression stage takes the longest ESPECIALLY if it hasn't been run for awhile and it is a large HDD... Run it while you're sleeping. It's worth doing if you want to get any mileage out of that drive...I haven't run it for ages, so I expected it to take a while, but not this LONG.
My C: is about 56GB on a 120GB disk. As you suggested, I was actually running it overnight, and EVEN when I went to work. But it still didn't progress after 12 hours. Doesn't that seem a little too long? Thanks.Here are a couple of links that may help. http://www.techiwarehouse.com/cms/engine.php?page_id=ed08e29f http://www.md4pc.com/questions/73.htmTry 3rd party cleaner, like Wise Disk Cleaner: http://www.majorgeeks.com/Wise_Disk_Cleaner_d5436.html
