I'm new. In Windows Me, I set up a schedule to run my defrag, scan disc,disk cleaner and Norton antivirus scan. Under scheduled tasks, I have start using task scheduler selected. None of the scheduled tasks are running as scheduled. Sometimes, when I boot up WinMe, I get a message stating--"Some tasks did not run at scheduled times because the task scheduler service was not running". When I check the task scheduler, it seems to have turned off by itself. Can anyone help. I want to upgrade to XP as I seem to have so many problems with WinMe. Any help appreciated. I recently lost everything due to a virus and want to keep my computer cleaned up.
 
Windows Me can be a very good OS once you get it tweaked up and the best way to do this is to follow as many of Trev's tweaks as you feel comfortable with.
You can find Trev's tweaks in the FAQ # 5 thebest2uDon
