How do I Start scandisk. I also notice that at start up the screen says that scandisk is running but just fast it says scandisk has been cancelled even though I haven't done anything. I need scan disk to run so I can de-frag.

There is no Scandisk ala Win9x in NT based systems i.e. NT4, Windows 2000, and XP. If you're referring to Checkdisk, Go to My Computer, right click on Local disk (C), select Properties, click the Tools tab, in error checking click on Check now, check the box for automatically fix errors and then click Start. It won't actually run immediately but will on reboot.
