It's recommended for gaming to defrag often. Do you do it ? How frequent ? Do you find it helps a lot? I find it a pain but I should probably do it more often.

I defrag pretty often. It helps mostly only if you're adding and removing programs a lot or are rearranging files constantly. Although it may be a pain, you should do at least once a month. You should do it at night then to avoid the annoyances of having to use it when it's defragmenting!

That's my problem , I can't leave the computer alone long enough to finish the job. I hate the sound of the thing when I'm sleeping , it's in my room I must shut it down. I'm addicted to an electronic box

No you shouldn't have to when i go to startup bar and go to accecories and then system tools it says both disk defragment and disk clean up . (hey a little tip g-o to zdnet .com and download window washer it washes all cookies and temp files and history with one button its awsome youll free up so much space ;)_
