Task Scheduler problems on notebook

Well I just got my laptop which has Windows XP Home on it but when I try to enter "defrag" into the task scheduler it says it cant find the program. I don't know how else to add the defrag into the menu... Is there a problem with laptops and task scheduler because the computer I was using before was XP home and worked fine. Thanks for any help!

Keith

Double check the path you are entering for the scheduled task is the same as the one in the Windows shortcut menu.
