Hello All!

   I asked this question several months ago and have yet to get a
reply so I thought I'd try again!

   Is there a PD or Shareware Defragmenter available that will work
with DOS 4.01 and partitions of greater than 32Mb? I am getting very
tired of having to backup my 60Mb hard disk, which is about 85% full,
and then reformatting, partitioning and restoring all those files just
to defragment my hard drive. I understand Norton Utilities is nice in
this area but I'm a poor grad student and can't afford this nice
package.

  Any and all help is appreciated!

  One more thing, and sorry to use the net for this, but about 3 weeks
ago I posted some problems I was having with Qmodem on my PS/2 and
someone was kind enough to reply. Unfortunately during my harried
(sp?) attempts at finishing up my thesis in time I erased my mail box
file and all info therein. The only thing I can remember about the
kind soul is that his nickname was "Wolfman". If you're reading this
please re-mail me a note so that I can get in touch with you!

Thanks,
--
