I would like to set schedule to perform defragment? after that, make XP with
SP3 into hibernation automatically.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

This "forum" never did support email alerts. Inasmuch as you're using the
horrid web interface, you'll have to live with its eccentricities,
limitations, and blunders. I have no idea as to how to find a prior post in
whatever web interface you're using.

If, however, you were using a civilized news reader - Outlook Express,
Thunderbird, Forte Agent, etc., you'd invoke the "Find" command.

I remember the option "notify me of replies" was worked before, maybe 3-5
year ago, then it does not work forever.
Thank for any suggestions

And why I suggested putting the commands in a .bat file.

Irrelevant since YOU replied to that prior thread so you know about the
commands that can be put in a .bat file. I don't use the webnews-for-
dummies interface that Microsoft uses to pretend this is a forum instead of
Usenet. That web-based client breaks all the time.

Do you actually have a drive that is designated with the letter "z:"?
Doesn't sound like that would be a hard disk. When you open a command shell
(cmd.exe) and execute that first command to run defrag.exe, does it do
anything? It can't do anything more in a .bat file than it does when you
run the command yourself.
