Disk Defragmentation.
I am currently running Windows XP Pro SP2, and I have been tinkering around with services and startup items. I am currently down to about 18 processes when Windows starts. Unfortunately, when I try to defragment my computer, I get an error message stating..
__________________'Diskeeper failed to connect to the service. The service may have stopped. See the Windows event log for more details.' Does anyone have any idea which service I need to enable to fix this problem? I've been trying to figure it out but haven't had much luck.

New to Overclock.net

To open MMC, click Start, and then click Run. In the Open box, type mmc.

There is also a service called Diskeeper that should probably be running. If you check the log, maybe it tells you which specific service is needed.

Hmm,
How about re-enabling all the stock (mostly unecessary!) Services, (except for Messenger and the other Obvious ones - heck, do all of them), and then trying (after a restart). See if it defrags then, and just disable them one at a time.. till you find the bugger thats needed ^_^. I know the darn service thats needed, but for the life of me I cant remember it! Its a service that makes the program connect to the 'local host' as if it were on a network (127.0.0.1 in a stand alone PC situation of course) I'll have to take a look at them again. When I'm lightin lightening up my system though, I usually opt for "manual" luanching, as opposed to Disabling it completly though, just in the even that some program I install in the future needs one. (some of them crash without :\) as for defraggin - Perfect Disk forever my friend  -----EDIt------ ah, check if the logical disk manager service is on manual.
