I don't know where this message went so I am reentering it.

My defrag gives an error message.  It says it cannot find
win87em.dll so it cannot initialize.  I did a search on my
computer and on the win98se CD.  I cannot locate the file.

Where is it and how should it be installed?  Should I
reinstall windows 98(my operating system) to get that one
file?  

Help.  Thanks.

That file belongs in the Windows\System folder. I believe you can extract it
from your Win98 disk by using SFC  (System File Checker). Just go to
Start,Run and type  sfc.exe  and press the Enter key. It is fairly self
explanatory there.

Worked great.  Defragmenter working however, I can I speed
it up.  If you know what the "detail" screen looks like
when defrag is working, mine it only doing a square or two
at a time.  It should be moving faster.

Empty our your Recycled Bin and your Temporary Internet Files and upon
reboot, empty out your Windows\Temp files.

Try shutting down all programs (ctrl-alt-del) except for Explorer and maybe
Systray. Disconnect from the internet and shut down your screensaver.

Now run Scandisk. When it finishes, try Defrag.
You can also download and install the ME Defrag which is somewhat faster
than the standard Win98 Defrag.

The below is an excerpt from a Post by Rob
"Rename defrag.exe to defrag98.exe, its in C:\Windows\

Download WinMe's defragger and rename to defrag.exe
put in C:\Windows .

WinMe's defragger is MUCH quicker and is 100% compatible with
windows98 and Scheduled Tasks......
