Scheduling defrags

How is this done in windows? i know there is a little application where you look for something you want to schedule but my disk defrag doesn't show up in it. How do you do it in XP? In ME it was easy

Smile the best way

A program called diskeeper is by far the best way, especially if you have multiple drives in your system. You can set many varied scheduled defrags from within the program itself.

I second that. The utility has some neat scheduling features which helps u to run the thing in the background and it will keep fragmntn levels under check. It doest hod resources either.

However, JJD's link tells you how to do this without buying 3rd party software.
