Go to the start menu
All programs
Accessories
System tools
Disk Defragmenter
You'll probably want to Analyze it first then defragment but i think you can defragment without analyzing. Hope this helps

Tic on "My Computer" Right tic on your "Local Disk (C:\)", and select "properties". On this page select the "tools" tab, tic the "Defragmentation" button. Hopefully, your hard drive isn't too full. If it is go to "Control Panel" then "Add and Remove Programs" and remove any programs that you don't use anymore, and then start the "Defrag" process. Since you haven't done this to the computer ever, it will take a LONG time to complete the process. This is a way to speed your computer up. It re-arranges the files on the hard drive, so the computer can find them faster. The other thing that you should know, download Ad-Aware from Lavasoft off the Internet, it is free. Another couple of free programs that you should have are: Spy-bot Search and Destroy, AVG Antivrus from Grisoft, and Windows Defender from Microsoft.com.. Update them BEFORE you run them. Then update and run them often. Get ALL the Security updates from Microsoft These are all ways to speed up and protect your computer from harmful viruses and spy-ware/ad-ware.
