Defragmentation of hard drive
A general question really. I was just about to start a defrag, and my disk defrag page says that it is run every Wednesday at 0100. How is this possible please, since my laptop is not switched on at that time. Or, is it saying 'if I was turned on I would defrag at that time'.

If you are running Vista or Win7, its scheduled to defrag at that time. If your PC is not powered on at that time, it defrags the next time you switch it on. The problem however is that since it lacks the graphic display its impossible to make out how much of the defrag is complete. Besides it also doesnt defrag fragments larger than 64MB. If need, check out alternative defraggers that have better features.
